    Crankcase

    1. Step 1

      open a sketch under the body and draw this sketch.( you can use convert entities command for circles)

      Medium

    2. Step 2

      extrude the sketch 10 mm

      Medium

    3. Step 3

      go to front plane and draw this profile

      Medium

    4. Step 4

      mirror all bodies with using right plane

      Medium

    5. Step 5

      extrude the profile at each directions. after, use body-move-copy comman to translate body 15 mm on Z coordinate.

      Medium

    6. Step 6

      open a sketch under the body and draw this sketch

      Medium

    7. Step 7

      extrude it up to top plane

      Medium

    8. Step 8

      open a sketch on the right plane. use convert entities command.

      Medium

    9. Step 9

      extrude the last sketch in two directions. direction 1 is up to body and direction 2up to purple surface

      Medium

    10. Step 10

      crop the body

      Medium

    11. Step 11

      go to under of the body and draw this sketch

      Medium

    12. Step 12

      use linear pattern command (95 mm gab) then extrude the sketch up to pink surface

      Medium

    13. Step 13

      make same things for other side

      Medium

    14. Step 14

      crop this parts

      Medium

    15. Step 15

      open a sketch front side and draw a 30mm radiused circle. then use cut extrude command

      Medium

    16. Step 16

      open a sketch on the cylinders. draw circles like this

    17. Step 17

      use cut extrude command. enter volues

      Medium

    18. Step 18

    Victor,

    It took me a few to figure it out also, but what hes doing is extrude/cutting the extra material out of the piston holes at a depth of 160mm from the top of the piston surface.

    So pick the "top" of the piston surface and create your sketch there, then look at my picture that Ive attached for a more comprehensive understanding.

    Draw all 12 holes like the ones you see in my screenshot and then extrude/cut them to a depth of 160mm from the top of the pistons. Hope this helps you out!!

    "Brylle
    I don't know how far these cylinders should be apart from eachother. Also I dont know if the method I used is correct. mirror the original body and use move/copy command. Need your help buddies. thank you"

    here is a picture of the dimension you required:

    Hey. Can you make a more detailed tutorial about part 12 of the V12 engine tutorials? I cant complete 12 without the dimensions of steps 1,3,7 etc. I tried my own dimensions, but then step 9 did not work!

    What are the dimensions for the extrusion in Step 3? And what are the width of the ribs in Step 6?

  • Brylle

    Thanks for the help. I was able to make the desired output by making another plane coincident with the original body and move it using move/copy command.

    step 9 doesnt work. it results to zero geometry

    Brylle,

    From what I noticed by looking at your added picture you went to far when drawing your rectangle, ill highlight the area Im talking about in the same picture you posted! I've drawn an orange line where you should have stopped!! Hope it helps!!

    The arrow pointing in the direction of the extrusion looks funky also but that just may be the perspective im getting from the screenshot.

    I'm having trouble with step 9. I go to extrude and I'm getting an error "unable to create this feature because it would result in zero-thickness geometry". I think it's something to do with direction 2 because I can get it to extrude to the body just fine but it wont extrude to the surface. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
