Hi all,
I would like to model a weld cart like Peter showed in this thread: https://forum.zerspanungsbude.net/viewtopic.php?t=40750
I am wondering how to model this in order to be flexible. I'd want to keep most dimensions parametric, like width, height, inclination of top shelf etc. What I need in the end is drawings for all steel tubes (25x25 mm) - mainly length of the tubes with angles at the end.
Is it possible to have parametric components (like tube length a, angles b and c at the end) and insert them into an assembly? Or do I have to model each tubing segment separately and link its dimensions to global parameters like height and width?
In total I count 14 tube parts. Around 8 will be unique - so do I have to draw eight different parts? Or is there a more elegant way?
Thanks, Martin
