Display cubes and part editor

Post by Chris B Campbell »

Hey All,
Need some help I am trying to build a hood, three of the sides are angled (Front along with right & Left sides) . I can only display one side in the part editor to cut away the portion I need, for instance the front, I cannot however rotate the cube in the part editor so as to remove the other two sides.
Any help??

Thanks
Chris

You will have to make a cutter and use it to cut the other 2 sides

Chris,

Here is a look at the tool I used to cut the skin for the heed below. It cuts both sides to leave a 1/4" skin.
