Need help making a fillet

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi everyone, sorry If my post is breaking any rules but I need some help making a specific fillet on a detail. Currently doing a school project and my teacher told me to fix my fillet on the small detail to look like the one he did in the picture ,,red detail"  but he didn't give me what radius he had used since it's an individual work. After hours of playing around I managed to get somewhat close as seen in the picture ,,my detail" but I just can't figure out how to make it work like what he has done so I need some help with it. I added the file in the post if someone can  take a look at it, the fillets in the file are 18,19, 20. I am using Inventor Pro 2018

 

Thanks if someone can help me.

Remove the existing fillets (highlighted) from your shape and try again.

There are numerous other issues with your design.

Are you interested in learning how to model this correctly step-by-step right from the beginning?

Thanks for the offer JDMather . For now I will see what my teacher will say. He said that he doesn't want a perfectly made detail and wanted me to fix the fillet and holes for now. If I need more help I will write another reply in this thread. Thanks again for the offer.

Your teacher missed teaching you the most important concept in Inventor (and all of CAD).

Where is your Origin Center Point in Sketch1?

That's just brilliant! No wonder - he has got a job. People, who are capable of teaching properly - are usually "unsuccessful applicants" for the position.

Actually that is my fault, I forgot to start from the origin center point, it's not my teachers fault. I just don't want to start making it from scratch currently or trying to move the entire body since I am busy these days. Maybe when I get some free time next week I will go back and remake the entire thing. Don't blame my teacher, he is an awesome one and really knows his stuff, it's my fault this time and I was kinda rushing it these days to make something and then work on improving it over time. Sorry 😞
