Inverted fillet

[dario.gigi.festa]

Hello there,

I was wondering if in Fusion 360 is there an option to create inverted fillet (convex in a recess). In Inventor there is the correspondent feature, and it's quite annoying to export everything just for add this feature, I believe this is an important feature and it's strange that i can't find it. Please do not suggest any workaround because the geometry i'm working on it's quite complex (can't do it properly with pipe extrusion or sweep, for the sake of clarity). 

Many thanks

Dario

Hi,

please share a sample file in which you specify the location where you want to apply it.

Is this what you are looking for?

Hello, 

thanks for your reply.

What I mean is exactly like the "2" marked fillet in the screenshot provided.

Many thanks,

Dario

There is no inverted fillet function in Fusion 360. If you are unable to work with the pipe command then it's back to Inventor for you.

Perhaps share that complicated geometry or at least a screenshot of it.

Thanks for your answer!

So sad that this fillet options doens't exist in Fusion, i'm in love with this software and this is the first time i have to make a really long workaround for achieving something. 

Unfortunately I cannot share any of the detail of the piece I'm working on because it's under NDA, but I made a simple model to understand the problematic.

As you can see the pipe is overflowing from the sides, also the body is not thick enough and the pipe is prutruding from the top plane (can't make it smaller because i need a full radius).

Probably sweeping and using the indent as a rail will resolve my problem, but i'm wondering if there is a better option.

Many thanks

Can you provide an image of how you imagine for the result to look like?

I am sure the geometry can be created in Fusion 360, but you are correct that it will be a fully manual approach. I personally don't see this being implemented anytime soon. I can count the number of times this has come up in the last 3-4 years on the forum on one hand.

I can understand what are you saying, I must admit that is a really particular case because pipe works well in a lot of scenarios, still I think it's a little feature that in some restricted case can save you some time!

Anyway I just resolved this issue a few minutes ago with by sweeping along the internal edges my desired profile, so I considered this issue resolved.

Many thanks again for your interest and your answers (and as a little side notes I've just seen your works with Trippy Leds, I'm also in the LED illumination as an hobby and I want to congratulate you for the awesome work! Keep it up!)
