Parametric fingerjoint box

[edvinburegren]

Hi,

Im trying to create a fully paramtric 6 sided box with user paramters for

L x W X H

Number of tabs in L x W X H

material thickness

Im using 6 extruded sketches to visualize the finnal box and sketch patterns to clone the fingertabs created using the line tool and constraints.

My problem is that whenever resizing I get both sketch and extrude errors.

Is this to much to ask of fusion to be able to have the whole model parametric and working without having to redo extrutions every time I change the size ?

Cheers

Edvin

Hi @edvinburegren,

Can you please attach your design as an *.f3d so I can take a closer look at it?

@edvinburegren When you do the thinger pattern use a feature pattern, useing a sketch pattern can sink fusion.

Just make sure you tie the variables together so if you change the height the thingers will move with the change or the other way around.

The attached file is just one way to do it.
