KarolR Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I want to make a rectangular surface, and later thicken it for sheet metal. How to make a planar surface? The extrude command adds height, and there seems to be no command to make a surface out of a 2D sketch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyJ Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Use the output options on the extrude dialog and choose surface instead of solid. It looks like an empty box as opposed to a solid box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Mather Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Method 1 Create a rectangular sketch and then use the Patch command. Method 2 Create a line and then use the Extrude command. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
