Drawing a line around two different axis

[Anonymous]

Hi All,

I'm quite new to Fusion 360 and have searched for an answer to no avail.

I'm trying to recreate the attached so I can 3d print but I'm stuck at the point of drawing the tubes that start on the right face and curve around to the front face.

Hopefully someone can help!?

This is not a beginner level project, but in any case, File >Export and then Attach your *.f3d file here.

Like this?,

Top view, side view sketches, are converted to a 3d sketch with Project > Intersection Curves, then Sweep, but pipe will do it as well.  Adjust the height near the top to suit, the inside pipe needs trimming at the top of the boss.

Might help....

Hi @davebYYPCU ,

Where do I find the Project - Intersection Curves menu?

Just trying to get my head round the process

Thank you

Use the eyeballs, step down the browser and flip them on and off, as you go, top was a trace of the canvass, then the side was a guess at where the top of the splines enter the neck.  You might have to adjust the height above the barrel, in the side sketch.

Profiles were adjusted from the canvass.

The tricky bit, create / edit the 3rd sketch, then in that sketch, it is 

Create > Project > Intersection curve.

You need the top and side view sketches visible, select the first curve from one of those sketches, then the corresponding curve from the other sketch and Fusion creates the purple ones into the current (3rd) sketch.  

For this model, each sketch has a line and a spline, the Projecting tool was used 4 times, chains don't work.

Might help....
