Adding sweep 2mm material around slice zones
- [Narrator] Okay, so the next thing we're going to do is create some swept features, to add a little bit more material around these zones where we're going to slice the model. Before we do that, I'm going to go in and add some extra work plains in to help give us some visual guidance on what we're up to. In this split zone one, where we're working now, what I want to do is grab this plain and create an offset plain. Just drag it up minus five. Going to select it again down in here and going to create another offset plain and drag it down and make it five that way as well. The reason why I'm doing this is when I look at that from the side in the right view, when we take this shape and we sweep it up this curve here, these are not straight and that's not straight either, so when we give it a number, it's going to be a percentage of this edge. What I wanted to try and do is offset things five mil, so that I kind of know where that is and then we'll go back and use it as a visual guide…
