Having difficulty applying full-round fillet

[makeable]

I dont seem to be able to apply a full-round fillet to the rim. While i can create fillets on the individual edges, i end up with extra edges which are undesirable, as i just want it rounded over.

No doubt I have done something in my workflow that has broken this. Any help would be much appreciated 🙂

Hi,

try it this way

Are you sure that you want to use Thicken rather than Shell (the results are very different)?

Edit:  I see that @g-andresen considered Shell as well (but I would add the bottom Fillet before the Shell).

Also - your sketches are not fully defined.  I would define those sketches (especially the hole position)??

Many thanks! I had a feeling that switching into surface mode to delete the face was the wrong approach! Doh!

Thank you. I was being a bit lazy with the holes, but I will follow your advice as the aim is to parameterize for different sizes.

Get really lazy - use Equal (=) constraints rather than multiple identical dimensions, or better yet, if the Design Intent is for a circular pattern - use a Circular Pattern (of Feature, not in Sketch).

Thanks again! I think ive fixed the constraints in the attached file. They are now driven off parameters as well.
I will have a look at the circular pattern!
