Tangent circles

[Anonymous]

Hi Folks,

I'm wondering if I am missing something here.

Is there a way to draw a tangent circle to a circle or two circles?

I've used other CAD programs where this was possible, in F360 I can only draw a circle tangent to a line or two lines.

I will be looking foreword to any suggestion on this if it's at all possible in F360?

(If this isn't possible at all, perhaps it's something for the suggestion box).

Thank you in advance.

Yes, of course that can be done. Simply sketch and dimension the three circles independently.

Then sketch the 4th circle you want to be tangent to the other three. then apply a tangent constraint from the sketch palette between the new circle and each of the other three circles.
