boolean workmanship particular.

Hello.

I read the previous posts, but I didn't come to the head of anything.
I should make a dig with a particular shape on a wooden block to make a dime.
in a few words a mold where I go to stay my piece and then perform measurements.
How can I dig a full block with a 5 mm thick piece similar to a car fender?

I'd like to create the footprint.

Thank you.

If you have the piece that you have to stay comes to a part where you go to create the block to dig, the positions where you want then you go to subtract it to the block.

Yeah, but it doesn't make me the fingerprint, it just takes away those 5 mm thick.

 

[TECNOMODEL]

because the piece is drowned in the block.
then you will have to create another part, always coming from the piece, and give it a thickness that allows you to create the cavity as you want.
or, eliminate the extra solid that remains after the subtraction. of course if the subtraction divides the block into two parts.

same problem, I have to "annex" a solid (a kind of cone trunk) in another solid ( parallelepiped ) and then subtract it. parallelepipedo less cone equal to emptied parallelepipedo. I am using inventor 12 . I currently have 2 ipt files. do I have to open a new ipt file or a new iam or should I start with one of the two existing files? I mean, not being so expert could you help me step by step? thanks in advance for patience.

in the parallelepipedo derives the cone, the positions where you want then do the subtraction.
or, if you have to keep a copy of the intact parallelepiped, you derive both solids in an ipt, positions them and subtract.

Thanks for the answer. but have patience, I open my parallelepipedo and give the command comes from the window "model-crea" or from the window "management-insert"? However, I open the page where I have the cone file, open command and the cone is placed exactly at the center of the parallelepiped. How do I move it where I want it and where the command is? I'm still sorry, but in this case I just can't be practical.

 

[TECNOMODEL]

from model-crea or from management-insert is the same command.
once imported go into model 3d-modification-placed bodies.
positions where you want then model 3d-modification-combine.
in that command decide whether to sum or subtract solids.
check if 2012 already worked with the multibody.

 

[scra450]

ok,in model 3d-modification I do not have the command combines but merge. from them base body would be the parallelepiped and body tool the cone, I make size and get the desired result. (I must select keeps the tool body). Thanks for everything and sorry for the trouble.

technomodel, trying and retrying I remembered how I made years ago to make the difference between solids. in environment iam bond my solids as I prefer and save. I open a new ipt, I immediately conclude the sketch and derive the axieme. As soon as it comes, I open a window where it gives me the possibility to add subtract or cut all the solids of the iam. without the history of the basic body and tool. I wanted to ask you: Are the 2 methods equal because they lead to the same result or are there differences? thank you and excuse me of insistence

 

[TECNOMODEL]

I guess it was the used escamotage before the multibody was implemented, I never used it.
even if it leads to the same result it seems more slender, in addition to creating more substantially useless files.

Okay thanks for everything, next.
