Compound Sketch

[agaribay]

I created a compound Sketch (2 separate sketches)and now I would like to create a radius between the two. Is this possible?
Basically I'm trying to recreate a cable/pipe from an old drawing using the dimensions provided.

Thanks.

I would put a constant radius pipe through points...

just make your 90 degree corner one separate sketch with the radiius.

ref the ends from your other sketches.

Hi Art,
You could also do it by adding a Datum curve through points to make that
radius (or near equivalent).

You would add Datum Points onto each of the original curves by:

- Copy (Exact or Approximate) the two original curves and trim at those
new points (hide the original curves to make things easier).
- make a Datum curve Through Points from those newly trimmed ends of
those copied curves and set the tangency onto the adjacent curves.
- finally Copy (Exact or Approximate) these three curves to make them
one. Guarantees you will get a sweep-able curve for your cable.


Hope this helps.
