3d View.

[ssathin]

Is there a way to make 3d view of an object ( say a box) from its plan and elevation? I'm requesting you to all to get a solution.
thanks,
Sathin

You can do this in several ways.
1. Make a layout and choose the view (plan or elevation).
2. You can make a flatshot from the plan or elevation in the model view.

When you need help with 3D, viewing or flatshot, don't be afraid and just reply

Your present geometry is 2D and you want to construct the object in 3D using what you currently have available to you. Is that correct?

You can use either the PRESSPULL command or even the EXTRUDE command to give your box some height.

Example of a simple 2D object (plan view) given height using the PRESSPULL command. No elevation view required.

If you post an image or an actual DWG file of what you are trying to construct in 3D someone here will tell you how to do it.

Nestly made a really nice little video on how to construct a solid from two 2D views:

One can even take three views (top, front and one side), extrude them, then use the INTERFERE command to obtain a 3D object such as a truck or a guitar.

That's right, only it won't work if the model is a bit complex, like a house or a closet.

Thanks to all for reply. But unfortunately i can't do that. So here I'm attaching the cad file what i need to make 3d view. Cad showing the plan, side elevation and front elevation of a box. Please help me to make that as the box which it will look like in 3d. Please explain the procedure as I've a little knowledge in 2d and don't know about 3d. Again thanking you all for your help.

My first attempt but I don't like it. Something seems to be off.
Think I'll give it another shot.

The holes in each of the three faces are supposed to extend straight down and not at the same angle as the face of each plane they are located on?

Re: Your 2D geometry. You have ten lines making up the plan view when there should only be eight. And when I switch to an isometric view it appears you attempted to extrude one portion (the right hand end) of the front view and then stopped.

Before tapering the two long sides. I think that it looks OK now but when I apply the taper that is when the problem crops up. Could your side view be wrong?
