Thank you very much. Have decided to start with a "straight" piece before and after my bend, else it might get tricky to make I guess :)

Thank you very much :)

That worked, thanks !

Hi, Why can't I select a sketch, when creating a sheet metal contour? I click the "sketch" box in the top of the window, but it's not added when i mark the sketch. Any help would be much appreciated

Great solutions - thats a lot :)

This might be the easiest solution, thanks :D

My question is only related to the treaded holes - sorry about the confusing. If I do that, then it might be a good idea not to use the Boolean tool at all. Just circulear and linear pattern both cut and threaded holes. Will try that - thanks :D

Hi, I have created some cuts in an axis, using Boolean Substract. Then using circular pattern to place the cuts/holes in a spiral. Not sure how to hand the next part. How do I add two threaded holes to each cut? Do I really have to create them manually, one by one? Any suggestions? :)

Guess some things are just easier in other software :p

I managed to use Dimenstions to fix the possition: But how to "Revolve" it around center axis? Seems it's missing

Hi, I would like to fill this gap (assembly) with a weldment (pure visuals). In other CAD programs I can make a sketch and resolve around the center axis - but how can I snap to existing structure? And is this even possible? To make it revolve around center axis? I cant find a "Revolve"...

I think it was once possible to just select some parts, right-click and select "Make assembly" or something like that. All makes etc. would be saved in the new subassembly. Cant do this anymore though - maybe I remember wrong.

Hi, I got an assembly containing about 50 parts. Is there an easy way to make a subassembly with some of those parts? They are currently all mated into one big assembly - need to make make some smaller assemblies now.

Thanks DavidJ. I managed to do it using Thin Wall Extrude and then Shell. 60x60x3 frame: For future reference: 1. Make a normal Sketch 2. I get an alert, I luck ignore it. 3. Click Thin Extrude 4. Mid Plane, 60 mm. (plane will be in center of the tube) Wall Thickness, 30 to each...

Hi, Does Alibre have a tool to create tube-frames? I came from Solid Edge before Alibre, and in SE it's possible to create a sketch for the frame you want, then click a Frame Design tool. Then you select what size of tube you want e.g.40x40x2, then select your sketch (2d or 3d), and the...

Hmmm... Version = V21 Screen resolution: 1920x1080 (24") I can select the line, but have to be spot on it - as seen in the video. Having the cursor 1 mm. next to the line will not select it.

Hi, I find it hard to select (or point) at lines. Normally have this issue when I have to put dimensions and is in a hurry. Alibre seems to be missing some degree of "line-snapping" - to make it easier to select lines. Example (not a good one, but will show my problem): Can I make it easier...

Using dimensions worked the best for me - seems to do the trick :) Thanks for the help again.

Thanks, will try that. How do you mate the point to the corner? Seems none of the available Contraints fit the task, which can't be true. So I guess i'm missing something. I tried to make mate it horizonal with one line and vertical with the other does not work (error).

Hi, I'm trying to create a hole in sheet metal, but I cant snap to edges/corners. How can I enable that?
