MaxwellEdison Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Time again for my favorite command! Use BOUNDARY to create a region by picking inside on of the halves of your drawing and then revolve the region. Voil Quote
b.muqlueen Posted January 19, 2009 Author Posted January 19, 2009 i get a message object should be on one side of the axis Quote
MaxwellEdison Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 You should only select half as your region, then to revolve it select the two endpoints towards the center to define your axis of revolution. Quote

b.muqlueen Posted February 10, 2009 Author Posted February 10, 2009 Just curiosity:How you planing to weld it inside? Sorry for the long delay. I been busy. I am not manufacturing the tank. But i can assume that it is not welded inside. Unless thats what the equipment cuts say(to lazy to bust them out right now). Think of i pipe being welded. It doesnt have to be welded inside. System pipe hold a lot more pressure than just fuel sitting in a tank. But i may be wrong. Quote
