    Default Question about Boss Height?

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Help!

    I have a simple 2D drawing that I have to convert to 3D and the drawing states that: Thickness: 0.5 & Boss Height: 0.25. I dont know if the height of the circles dia. 1.0 and 2.0 are set at 0.25 or is this added onto the thickness 0.5. Thank you in advance for any help.

    A "boss" is a raised portion (usually circular), so I believe the part is .5 thick with an additional .25 for the boss.

    That is how I would read that too.
    nestly, watching your videos makes ME want to learn autocad too,
    then I remember that I already know it, after the credits are run
    as I am filing out of the theater.
    Volume and repetition do not validate opinions forged in the absence of thought.
