Looking for help to Convert Revit file (*.rfa) to AutoCAD dwg file.

I would like to create a 3d file of a Delta faucet to use in a product drawing. I downloaded the file directly from Delta's website, but I have no way to convert it. Would there be any revit users out there that would be willing to convert this file to AutoCAD for me? I'd really appreciate the help! If there is anyone interested, please email me at tony.rampulla@schoolspecialty.com

 

Thank you!!

Export to DWG not working? 

 

Wait a minute.  Are you saying you have a Revit Family but not Revit Software?

I really appreciate your help, but I can't get it to display properly when I do a hide command. I tried exploding the block, but it comes thru as polyface meshes, which I have no clue how to work with.

I guess I expected it to display like a regular solid object that I draw. Everything I draw is in the 2D Wireframe visual style, and then I use the hide command to make it appear "solid". I've attached a PDF that shows how this is displaying. Parts of it appear to be missing, even though I know it's there. This only appears to be an issue using the wireframe  or hidden visual styles. If I change to something other than those, I can see the entire faucet. Maybe this is a limitation of my skills? I do very little in 3D, so what I know has pretty much been self taught. Maybe there is command or setting that I just don't know about? I really do appreciate your help!

Here's a snip of the faucet display in regular viewing mode, no hide command. You can see how most of it is not displaying.

Thank you so much for your help! I think I found a solution which was to convert everything to a mesh object. After doing this the entire faucet displays in wireframe visual styles. I can't thank you enough for converting this for me! I really, really appreciate it!

Really depends what export it uses. I've export the Revit to CAD as 3d SOLID rather than polymesh. When you open in AutoCAD, use the DISPSILH and set it to 0. You will get hidden line like you see below.

WOW! Thank you as well! This works even better as it comes in at the proper scale and doesn't have so many tessellation lines. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

@Ramp59: Did you pull my Solution Credit, or is it a Forum glitch that it is not shown?

I marked your reply with your attachment as "Accepted Solution". I don't even know how to pull that back. Maybe when I accepted the other response it kicks yours out? I wanted to mark them both as accepted, because I was able to use both.

Thanks for responding, @Ramp59.

 

The forum has been very glitchy lately.  

 

Have a good day. :lächelndes_Gesicht_mit_lächelnden_Augen:

Yea I am also having the same issue. I was about to add additional image and then the edit reply locked up. So I have to resort to reply.
