how to add holes to a spherical object like a colander

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone,

I need help, how do I add uniformly holes to a spherical object like a colander.

I managed to make holes on a sphere by using planes/sketches at different angles and extruding/cut, but it does not give me even/uniformly holes throughout its surface.

Hi @Anonymous,

Here's a screencast of how I'd create a circular pattern of holes.

Forgot to mention in the screencast, if you want the pattern to be truly circular make sure the quantity of bodies in each pattern bodies command is the same.

Hope this helps!

Best,

Ben
