Just beginning to learn. Would love to see step by step on how to guild the tray itself.

When you do get into a more complex assembly that includes many parts from different part studios, the assembly can be used as "context" for a new part studio. This is a really great feature when you want to design a part that will appear in-context with many other parts, but you don't want to have just one part studio that contains all the features for hundreds of parts.

Ohhhh - that's sweet! Thanks! I'm gonna use that as my assemblies get more and more complex! Thanks!

One of the best on this channel! 👍

Wow thanks @ConciergeMed !

I would love a video going further and explaining how to use a skeleton across multiple part studio for more complex assemblies

FYI there's a neat plugin called "Grid Extrude" that lets you quickly and easily add an extrusion that has holes in it already. Not my plugin, I just like it and it would be great for making the insert on this soap holder.

Very interesting, would love to see you add some tolerance. In my experience, when 3-D printing it can be difficult for parts to fit together without some tolerance.

Hi BOA2 - the offset sketch at 1:30 is create (as an offset) to account for tolerance and allow the two parts to fit together - and I agree - you always have to be aware of tolerance when 3D printing - since the tolerance will be different for different printers 🙂

I’m a mechanical engineering student from like the 90’s. I have since rebooted myself into this world and learning all over again.. I need to design a drone 😂😂😂 so here goes.. hrs of tutorials. I like these though it fast I think I’m getting it.

Good video. I'm actually interested in the process you used to create the rib and "ledge" in the tray which you fast forwarded through. I've done similar things but I always feel there are better ways. Is the model shared so I can see what steps you took?

@TooTallToby

Hi Bsimmons! The "ledge" was created using the offset entities command in sketch mode, then an extrude (remove) - similar to what is shown around: 1:34 The RIB command in onshape is a super powerful too. and I made a video on that topic here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/nYB9xKWAg9mTYJs.htmlsi=swMA8niELa00nspS Hope this helps but lemme know if you are still stuck and maybe I can make another video! 😁

@@TooTallToby Gotcha, thanks. That's a much easier way than when I have done it by trying to add something partway down a surface. Rewatching the video it's easy to see now what you did. Thanks again.

It would have been interesting to see how you approached cutting all the holes in the tray and not just one random one.

dude ive learned so much shit with you videos.

Nice!

This is great! Can you illustrate a sort of fastest or most sensible way to go from a Parts Studio to an Assembly and make mates so those parts “know” their orientation even after subsequent changes? I guess I’m talking about Mate placement or construction best practices.

@TooTallToby

9 ай бұрын

There's a FIX option in the tree - you can right mouse button on one or more of the parts to "lock down" their location. So if you simply want to keep them from moving, I would use that option. is that what you are looking for?

Sort of yes and no? Like let’s say these parts are fixed to each other but then slide against a baseplate or hinge etc.

​@TooTallToby parts that are fixed in an assembly don't move between each other only in this assembly, not if you insert this assembly somewhete else. Have a look at the Group feature which is "in between" Fix and Mates.

nice - thanks Eric and YES I love the group feature - and I demonstrate it in an upcoming video on how to migrate a SolidWorks assembly into onshape and re-create the assembly motion! Very cool and useful! @@servicestechniquesericgauthier

My wife recently said that soap dishes are currently hard to find (maybe with some special feature) so this video is apparently timely.

Do you have a slower video of the soap dish by itself? Trying to work out the offset clips.

Can you show how to make two threaded parts fit together

Yup - Video coming up in the next few weeks!

Onshape

Somehow the modified parts do NOT update in my assembly. Is there a hidden switch or something avoiding the Assy update?

I am new to OnShape - can this method be used to make a letter ( G for example) and a inset for that letter, as in a marque?

Anyone can you please let me know video on how to create ledge like the soap tray its fast forwardeed here

@TooTallToby

8 ай бұрын

You can accomplish that feature by creating a cut, using a sketch that has an OFFSET ENTITIES feature. Offset the inner edge of the ledge, by 1/2 material thickness, and then you can use that geometry to do your cut. Give it a try and let me know if you have any follow up questions 🙂

Hi TTT, what if the walls are not in 90degree will the inlet take the degree of the wall?

@TooTallToby

9 ай бұрын

Hi Wasser - If the walls aren't 90 degrees then you might use the option for OFFSET SURFACES - or you could even design the shelf with overlapping geometry to the base, then use a BOOLEAN command to remove one part from the other. I'll be showing how to do this i a few videos, so keep an eye out for the HEX BOLT and MATCH THREADS videos!

I am looking for a tutorial on how you made the top part with all of the holes symmetrical

Do you guys know of anyone who has tutorials using on shaped to design things like robots/mecks for war gaming

Maybe something like this? kzread.info/dash/bejne/aqafp65rnJfWprA.htmlsi=fzwiyK4zTY-YvbI1 I know that's more for actual robotics, but I'm sure you can extrapolate the geometry you need for a gaming design model

I'm lost at the start, what are the key presses or mouse clicks? You don't explain the "features" you're using. I never get that pencil context box and the building the square from the centre out, I can only build from the origin, certainly not mirrored like that. A keyboard ocverlay would be super beneficial if you're not going to explain it

Your parts are too loose.
