Move a surface.

[connornijsse]

Hello,

I have been trying for a couple days to accomplish this. I extruded the base down about 32mm, now I am trying to move the rest of the design down the 32mm so that the whole design is longer. I can't extrude anything that isn't a flat surface, and I can seem to move anything.

I included 2 screen shots, the highlighted area is what I'm trying to move.

Short answer, 

Looks like a revolve created that profile, add 32 mm to the dimension that placed the surface there.

Edit sketch, change dimension or constraint.

Need the file to confirm an educated guess.

Might help...

I'm really new to Fusion, I think this link will let you download it.

This would be REALLY easy if it were a parametric design.  But as it is it's not to bad.  Here's a screen cast. 

High lights-

-split the body to in 2 places to isolate the bit you want to move.

-move that bit

-extrude to fill gap.

just re-read your post.  I think I moved things the opposite direction from what you where looking for.  But the idea would be the same more or less.  I can do another screen cast if this isn't clear.

And after thinking about it another few moments, I realized that only the first split operation I did in the screen cast is necessary. After you do that split, move the split off bit so the surface is where you want it, then push/pull the bottom back to where it should be.
Use combine to put it all back together.
