f700es Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Yes it was an offset and then I did a trim to connect the lines and then a pedit to connect and join them. Here is the image I used. I used the left image. Brought it into Acad. Scaled it to be close to scale as possible. Drew a line on the wheel profile and then offset, trim, pedit. Used the dims on the image to get my center line, offset 1.39 from the wheel edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f700es Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 lol i messed my rim. due to lack of dimesion cant figure out how to make a perfect dimension or lenght or width You are making it too complex. Just trace over the lines and make it close enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReMark Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Are you welding this wheel to the axle? I don't see any way to slip it over the end of the axle (no hole in hub). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miedy12 Posted October 7, 2011 Author Share Posted October 7, 2011 no dude just a wheel no axle and yes i didnt create a whole in the center. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Might you want to add one.....dude? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f700es Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Remember that you need a line offset from the center-edge to use as a revolve center line. Look at my original images on page 1. Edit: No need to post the dwg a jpg will be fine for right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Tillman Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Pretty cool stuff guys. But do some youtube searches on this topic and you will be amazed what you will find. I saw one recently and although the author used 3dsMax it was a mind blower to watch how quickly and accurately he laid out and then rendered a very complex rim and tire. I don't have the link but just do some searches on youtube and you'll find more than enough for creative thinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miedy12 Posted October 7, 2011 Author Share Posted October 7, 2011 ya bill i saw many videos on youtube i viewed some from autocad but they didnt make a tutorial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReMark Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 You don't necessarily need a written tutorial. Take some notes. Use the pause button. Replay the video until you understand what is being done and why. If you can talk and text on your cell phone while doing something else (let's hope it is not driving) then you can surely master taking notes while watching a video.

SLW210 Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Draw the profile for the tire and revolve same as you did for the rim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
