Hi!
I am creating a wooden box for a Flower from scrap material and I decided to design it in Fusion first so I get a little training.
This is the final object I am designing:
In the above case, the planks around the box are extruded one after another manually, 12 times. The above design is parametric and behaves like it should if I change the measurements of the planks or beams. But it was annoying to create twelve sketches and extrude twelve planks that were basically the same. Especially if I want to make changes to the planks like holes or fillets that would be even more work that I have to do times 12.
In a new attempt I am trying to create one plank and reproduce it 11 times.
This is what I start with:
Now I use the move/copy-command to create a copy and move and rotate it to the position of the next plank. This is what it looks like:
The plank was reproduded with all holes and I am happy until I try and change the size of my final box using the parameters box:
The copy/move command is not parametric and therefore the plank is not in the correct position any more.
Does anybody have an idea how to duplicate the component and put it in place without losing the parametric design?
Thanks for your help!
