finalize a three D. Model from a blueprint
00:06
in this video. We'll add tapped holes and will review a design
00:12
infusion 3 60. Let's carry on with our engine case. Rh
00:16
at this point.
00:17
We've added the majority of the features but we still need to add
00:20
some dowel pin holes as well as some holes for the passing screws.
00:25
This means that we'll have to do it from two different sides.
00:28
So to get started, let's go ahead and create a sketch on this face
00:33
and inside of the blueprint,
00:35
we have two holes mirrored across the midline
00:38
because we did base this about the origin.
00:41
This will be easy for us to create one set.
00:43
But because we do have dimensions referencing both.
00:46
Even if we mirror our features, we do need to make sure that we add those dimensions.
00:51
So I'm going to add a point for my upper hole and for the lower hole
00:57
then I'm going to right click and say,
00:58
okay we want to make sure that these holes are vertical relative to each other.
01:03
And then we want to add our dimensions.
01:06
When we're looking at the dimensions for these,
01:08
we have to think about the orientation in the location.
01:11
This small hole which is going to be a dowel pin is going to be .25 from the top.
01:18
The next hole is going to be the center of the passing
01:21
quarter-20 screw and that's going to be .7 down from the top.
01:25
Notice that this comes directly at the origin.
01:28
But again we can't make that inference based on the print.
01:31
So we have to use the dimensions
01:34
from the side of the part.
01:35
We have to look at our drawing views and figure out where these are located.
01:39
Both of them are vertical relative to each other and they're a quarter inch in,
01:43
so 0.25.
01:45
And now those are fully defined.
01:47
Again,
01:48
we don't necessarily know that they are perfectly mirrored across the other side,
01:52
but we do have dimensions.
01:54
We know that the holes on the other side are 2.13 away.
01:59
So what we can do is we can add those points.
02:03
We can use constraints such as horizontal to make sure that they
02:07
are horizontal in relation to the ones on the left hand side,
02:10
we can make sure that they are vertical relative to
02:13
each other because we do know that from the print.
02:15
And then we can add a single dimension from this left edge.
02:19
Again, sometimes it's going to automatically select the dimension.
02:22
If that happens, one thing that you can do is you can hold down the left mouse button
02:28
And this will give you the option to select
02:30
the sketch dimension a sketch line or an edge.
02:34
You will notice that we didn't put a sketch line here.
02:37
But in fusion 360 when we use a face as a sketch plane,
02:40
it will automatically project that edge for us.
02:43
So I'm going to use the sketch line and then dimension to one of these points.
02:47
The dimension on the drawing again is 2.13. And we'll say, Okay,
02:52
so we can see now that we've got the positions for those four different holes.
02:57
We can finish the sketch and we can create those using the whole feature
03:02
We're going to once again use from sketch.
03:04
But this time the holes are different sizes,
03:06
so we have to start with just the upper two.
03:08
These are going to be .125 holes and they're going to go down a distance of 1.875.
03:16
These are simple holes and the detailed drawing does
03:19
show a cutaway that has a flat bottom.
03:22
This can be a problematic feature on a detailed drawing because we don't know if the
03:26
base of the hole needs to be machined flat or if a drill point is acceptable.
03:31
So for the purposes of this we'll make that determination when we go to program.
03:35
But for right now I am going to use a flat bottom and not a drill point.
03:39
The diameter and the depth of the hole can be driven here and again,
03:43
the diameter is .125.
03:46
The print does show a tolerance value of plus .005 and zero.
03:52
However, we can't put that tolerance value in here.
03:54
We have to account for it in the way in which we're going to machine the part,
03:58
the depth of the hole is going to be 0.1875.
04:02
And we can see that based on the way that
04:04
the hole is dimension in the print will say okay,
04:07
and there is a note to deeper the edge.
04:10
There are ways to do a whole with a champ for edge,
04:15
but often times it's going to be easier if you're not doing a true
04:18
counter sink to come back after the fact and use a champ for tool,
04:22
there isn't a specific value that's specified.
04:25
So we can just pick a value
04:27
and add a small chance for
04:30
the next thing that we need to do is bring back
04:31
that last sketch because we need to make holes here.
04:34
Now this is a tricky hole because it's actually going
04:37
to be a counter bore from the other side,
04:39
but we don't have a great reference for the other side.
04:42
So there are two different ways that we can approach this.
04:45
We can either create a simple passing hole from here and then on the other side we
04:50
can create the counter board manually or we can
04:53
project these sketch points to the other side.
04:55
We already took care of making sure that the
04:58
dimensions is are referenced from the correct edge.
05:01
So a projection would work. Okay,
05:03
I'm going to go ahead and create a sketch on the back side
05:06
and go to my create project include project which is also p
05:11
on the keyboard and I'm going to project these sketch points.
05:16
We're going to say, okay, and now those points should be located in my new sketch,
05:21
we can finish the sketch,
05:23
we can start the whole tool and once again we're going to use from multiple.
05:27
We're going to select these two.
05:29
We're going to change the distance to be through all and we're
05:33
going to change the whole type to be a counter board.
05:35
This is where we need to look at the drawing because the counter bore
05:38
diameter is going to be 20.45 and it's going to go down 0.25 inches.
05:44
We can see that from the view on the right hand side.
05:47
So the diameter of the counter board
05:49
is going to be 0.45 and the depth of the counter board is going to be 0.25.
05:56
This should leave enough room for the head of a screw and then we need to figure
06:01
out what the diameter of the hole is going to be based on our detailed drawing,
06:05
it's going to be 0.26 and it's through all which we're doing here with the depth,
06:10
we're going to say, okay,
06:11
and now we've accounted for the counter board in a
06:13
single feature but we did have to project those references.
06:17
We could have created those sketch point references on the other side,
06:21
but we had to include them on this face
06:23
for those different positions for the dowel pins.
06:27
Now there aren't any notes on the detailed drawing about d bring everything,
06:32
but we are going to go back and we are going to add champ
06:35
for tool paths when we actually cut this part in a cam video.
06:39
But for right now this is exactly how it is on the detailed drawing.
06:43
And it's a great time for us to do a little bit of investigation to check.
06:47
So first we want to make sure that we do save,
06:50
then we're going to go to inspect and
06:53
section analysis for my section analysis first.
06:57
I want to look at this from the mid plane.
06:59
Now the reason that we're doing this is because the section analysis in section B.
07:04
B should exactly match what we have here. Everything does look fine.
07:09
So there's nothing majorly wrong there.
07:12
The next thing that I want to do is I want to drag
07:14
this until I get to the center point of my other holes.
07:19
I should also see that this view is represented even though it's mirrored section A.
07:24
So if we want to see section A, what we can do is we can reverse its direction.
07:29
We'll flip this around 180 degrees and we'll pull it over to the other screws.
07:35
Or just simply look at these ones as their section.
07:38
We want to make sure that we are seeing the tapped hole from the top,
07:42
not go all the way through into the counter board.
07:45
This can be a critical step in the process.
07:47
We want to make sure that we don't drill too deep.
07:49
And we also want to make sure that everything does look like it does in section A.
07:54
We're gonna cancel to not actually create the section analysis.
07:57
And lastly you can go through with the inspection tool and you can measure
08:02
specific areas just to ensure that the dimensions do match your detailed drawing.
08:07
The last piece that I want to do is I'm going to select the entire design.
08:11
I'm going to right click and I want to add a physical material.
08:15
The physical material is going to be aluminum 60 61. This was inside of our print.
08:20
So we're gonna go to metal, we're gonna go to aluminum and we're going to find 60 61.
08:26
You'll notice that with 6061 there are going
08:29
to be a lot of different heat treatments.
08:31
But we're going to select aluminum 60 61.
08:34
I'm going to drag this over in this design which will replace
08:37
the material for all of the different bodies in this design.
08:40
In this case it's only one.
08:42
So now we've got body one and if we right click
08:45
on it and we take a look at its properties,
08:47
we should see aluminum 60 61.
08:50
We can see the density of the material, the mass of the part and the appearance here.
08:55
So everything looks good at this point. We can go ahead and save the design.
09:00
Let's go ahead and do a control s to save it and then we can move on to the next step.
00:02
finalize a three D. Model from a blueprint
00:06
in this video. We'll add tapped holes and will review a design
00:12
infusion 3 60. Let's carry on with our engine case. Rh

we don't necessarily know that they are perfectly mirrored across the other side,
