1 00:00:00,410 --> 00:00:03,965 >> Hello. Welcome to Module 12. 2 00:00:03,965 --> 00:00:07,450 In this module, we are going to follow 3 00:00:07,450 --> 00:00:11,815 the book AutoCAD 2015, Bible, 4 00:00:11,815 --> 00:00:17,250 and Chapter 24, 5 00:00:18,450 --> 00:00:22,845 creating solids and editing in 3D. 6 00:00:22,845 --> 00:00:26,210 In this chapter, we are 7 00:00:26,210 --> 00:00:30,570 working on creating base geometrical shape, 8 00:00:30,570 --> 00:00:33,245 drawing extrude, swept, revolved, 9 00:00:33,245 --> 00:00:35,530 lofted and polyline solid, 10 00:00:35,530 --> 00:00:38,250 manipulating solid directory, 11 00:00:38,250 --> 00:00:41,010 creating a mesh subject. 12 00:00:44,370 --> 00:00:48,335 For drawing, basic, smooth, solid, 13 00:00:48,335 --> 00:00:50,370 AutoCAD make it easy to create 14 00:00:50,370 --> 00:00:53,660 most basic 3D geometric shapes. 15 00:00:53,660 --> 00:00:56,830 These shapes are easy to draw because you can 16 00:00:56,830 --> 00:00:59,790 dynamically see the result as you draw. 17 00:00:59,790 --> 00:01:02,795 For example, drawing box in Figure 18 00:01:02,795 --> 00:01:07,610 24.2 shows a solid box 19 00:01:07,610 --> 00:01:12,110 with a hidden visual style applied. 20 00:01:12,110 --> 00:01:15,550 To draw a box, follow these steps. 21 00:01:15,550 --> 00:01:18,605 Choose home tab, modify panel, 22 00:01:18,605 --> 00:01:22,130 3D solid, drop down menu box. 23 00:01:22,130 --> 00:01:24,520 I'm going to go to AutoCAD. 24 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,975 We are in the 3D modeling space. 25 00:01:27,975 --> 00:01:33,830 We are under the solid box. 26 00:01:33,830 --> 00:01:36,640 And the best way of 27 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:38,980 seeing the result is to change 28 00:01:38,980 --> 00:01:40,580 the view to 29 00:01:40,580 --> 00:01:46,500 either Southwest or Southeast view. 30 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:53,700 Box. 31 00:01:53,700 --> 00:01:55,640 At the specified first corner 32 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,080 or center prompt, 33 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,260 specify any corner of the box or right click 34 00:02:01,260 --> 00:02:03,160 and choose a center to 35 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,635 specify the 3D center of the box. 36 00:02:06,635 --> 00:02:09,540 Not the center of the base. 37 00:02:10,550 --> 00:02:14,010 If you specify the corner, the default, 38 00:02:14,010 --> 00:02:16,710 you then see the specified other corner 39 00:02:16,710 --> 00:02:20,750 or cube length prompt. 40 00:02:20,750 --> 00:02:24,870 The default is to pick the opposite corner 41 00:02:24,870 --> 00:02:29,165 in the X and Y plane. 42 00:02:29,165 --> 00:02:32,610 This defines the base of the box. 43 00:02:32,610 --> 00:02:34,510 You can define the base just 44 00:02:34,510 --> 00:02:37,770 like you define any rectangle by 45 00:02:37,770 --> 00:02:41,930 dragging and picking the opposite corner or 46 00:02:41,930 --> 00:02:44,610 by entering a coordinate 47 00:02:44,610 --> 00:02:47,630 at the specifying height, 48 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:54,590 or pick two points to specify the height. 49 00:02:54,590 --> 00:02:57,390 This complete the box. 50 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:03,250 If you specify the center 51 00:03:03,250 --> 00:03:04,965 at the first prompt, 52 00:03:04,965 --> 00:03:07,930 you see the specifying center 53 00:03:09,650 --> 00:03:12,930 of the box appears. 54 00:03:12,930 --> 00:03:15,585 If you pick the corner of the box, 55 00:03:15,585 --> 00:03:17,450 AutoCAD then ask you 56 00:03:17,450 --> 00:03:20,130 for the height to complete the box. 57 00:03:20,130 --> 00:03:21,945 If you specify the length, 58 00:03:21,945 --> 00:03:25,890 AutoCAD then ask for the width and height. 59 00:03:25,890 --> 00:03:27,850 If you use the cube option, 60 00:03:27,850 --> 00:03:30,035 other AutoCAD asks for 61 00:03:30,035 --> 00:03:33,510 a length and complete the box. 62 00:03:36,110 --> 00:03:39,990 You can specify a negative length, 63 00:03:39,990 --> 00:03:41,890 width or height to 64 00:03:41,890 --> 00:03:44,450 build the box in the negative direction. 65 00:03:44,450 --> 00:03:47,470 If you specify the center of the cube, 66 00:03:47,470 --> 00:03:51,370 don't forget that the centre's Z coordinate 67 00:03:51,370 --> 00:03:55,025 is different from the corners' Z coordinate. 68 00:03:55,025 --> 00:03:56,950 AutoCAD always create the box 69 00:03:56,950 --> 00:04:00,470 parallel to the XY plate. 70 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,590 Drawing a wedge. 71 00:04:04,590 --> 00:04:07,975 A wedge is a box sliced diagonally in half. 72 00:04:07,975 --> 00:04:10,190 The prompts are virtually the 73 00:04:10,190 --> 00:04:12,870 same as for the box command. 74 00:04:12,870 --> 00:04:17,720 Figure 24.3, which is here, 75 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:24,560 24.3, shows two solid wedge. 76 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,995 For creating a wedge, 77 00:04:27,995 --> 00:04:31,790 follow the steps from the book, 78 00:04:31,790 --> 00:04:34,145 going back to AutoCAD. 79 00:04:34,145 --> 00:04:36,410 Choose a home tab, 80 00:04:36,410 --> 00:04:41,510 modeling panel, 3d solid drop-down menu. 81 00:04:41,510 --> 00:04:47,950 Wedge. 82 00:04:48,050 --> 00:04:54,450 At all specified first corner, 83 00:04:54,450 --> 00:04:58,190 specify any corner of the wedge or use 84 00:04:58,190 --> 00:04:59,510 the center option to 85 00:04:59,510 --> 00:05:02,760 specify 3D center of the wedge. 86 00:05:03,020 --> 00:05:07,760 If you specify the corner by default, 87 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,990 you then see the specified other corner 88 00:05:10,990 --> 00:05:13,800 or cube length prompt. 89 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,340 The default is to pick 90 00:05:15,340 --> 00:05:17,920 the opposite corner in the XY plane. 91 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,060 You can also define it by using a coordinate. 92 00:05:21,060 --> 00:05:24,020 The command then asks you for 93 00:05:24,020 --> 00:05:28,615 the height in the Z direction. 94 00:05:28,615 --> 00:05:31,760 This complete the wedge. 95 00:05:34,490 --> 00:05:37,155 If you use the cube option, 96 00:05:37,155 --> 00:05:43,660 AutoCAD ask for one length 97 00:05:43,660 --> 00:05:45,640 and complete the wedge. 98 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,160 For positive length, the wedge 99 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:52,410 slopes downward in the positive Z direction. 100 00:05:52,410 --> 00:05:57,480 However, if you have a dynamic input on, 101 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,080 the slope will follow 102 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,465 the direction of the cursor. 103 00:06:01,465 --> 00:06:04,935 If you use the length option, 104 00:06:04,935 --> 00:06:08,150 AutoCAD asks you for a width and height. 105 00:06:08,150 --> 00:06:10,830 If you specify the center, 106 00:06:10,830 --> 00:06:13,950 you see the specified center prompt. 107 00:06:13,950 --> 00:06:15,870 Specify the center point, 108 00:06:15,870 --> 00:06:18,310 the specified corner or 109 00:06:18,310 --> 00:06:20,950 cube length prompt displays. 110 00:06:20,950 --> 00:06:23,130 If you pick the corner of the wedge, 111 00:06:23,130 --> 00:06:26,795 the command asks for the height. 112 00:06:26,795 --> 00:06:28,650 If you specify a length, 113 00:06:28,650 --> 00:06:31,310 AutoCAD then ask for the width and height. 114 00:06:31,310 --> 00:06:33,315 If you use the cube option, 115 00:06:33,315 --> 00:06:36,550 AutoCAD ask for the length and complete 116 00:06:36,550 --> 00:06:40,510 the wedge. Drawing cone. 117 00:06:40,510 --> 00:06:43,530 You can draw cones with 118 00:06:43,530 --> 00:06:47,250 a circular or elliptical bases. 119 00:06:47,250 --> 00:06:49,950 By specifying negative height, 120 00:06:49,950 --> 00:06:53,290 you can create an individual cone like 121 00:06:53,290 --> 00:06:55,450 an ice cream cone by 122 00:06:55,450 --> 00:06:58,910 specifying the axis endpoint, 123 00:06:58,910 --> 00:07:02,070 the APX, you can draw 124 00:07:02,070 --> 00:07:06,525 cones on the angle from the X and Y plane. 125 00:07:06,525 --> 00:07:09,670 You can also specify a top radius to create 126 00:07:09,670 --> 00:07:14,555 a truncated cone, 127 00:07:14,555 --> 00:07:18,660 sometimes called a frustum cone. 128 00:07:18,660 --> 00:07:27,580 Figure 24.4 shows some cones. 129 00:07:28,340 --> 00:07:33,225 So here is the steps for drawing cone, 130 00:07:33,225 --> 00:07:35,730 going back to AutoCAD. 131 00:07:35,730 --> 00:07:38,550 Choose Home tab modeling panel, 132 00:07:38,550 --> 00:07:41,325 3D, solid dropdown menu, 133 00:07:41,325 --> 00:07:43,590 home tab modeling, 134 00:07:43,590 --> 00:07:48,065 solid dropdown menu, find cone. 135 00:07:48,065 --> 00:07:53,440 At the specified center point or base of 3D, 136 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,000 2D elliptical, 137 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,760 specify the center of the base. 138 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,300 Just click on the screen. 139 00:08:05,070 --> 00:08:08,570 If you want a circle con, otherwise, 140 00:08:08,570 --> 00:08:10,305 use the two-point or three-point 141 00:08:10,305 --> 00:08:12,630 or tangent-tangent radius option 142 00:08:12,630 --> 00:08:14,570 to define a circle basis. 143 00:08:14,570 --> 00:08:15,850 Use the optical option, 144 00:08:15,850 --> 00:08:17,770 define an elliptical base. 145 00:08:17,770 --> 00:08:20,830 If you specify a center point at 146 00:08:20,830 --> 00:08:29,425 a specify base, radius or diameter. 147 00:08:29,425 --> 00:08:32,870 If you specify center, 148 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,080 which we specify center, 149 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:37,960 specify a radius or use 150 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,840 a diameter option, specify the diameter. 151 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,780 If you choose the elliptical option, 152 00:08:42,780 --> 00:08:46,180 use a prompt to define the elliptical base. 153 00:08:46,180 --> 00:08:47,440 Then prompts are like 154 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:51,040 the prompts for the ellipse command. 155 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:52,805 So here we are at 156 00:08:52,805 --> 00:08:57,795 specify base radius or diameter, 157 00:08:57,795 --> 00:09:00,075 just click anywhere on the screen, 158 00:09:00,075 --> 00:09:03,820 and then you see specify a height. 159 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:08,115 Specify the height by dragging 160 00:09:08,115 --> 00:09:11,800 or entering a value. 161 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,190 Use the two-point option to 162 00:09:15,190 --> 00:09:19,050 specify the height by picking two points. 163 00:09:19,050 --> 00:09:21,870 At the access endpoint option 164 00:09:21,870 --> 00:09:24,130 is another way to specify the height 165 00:09:24,130 --> 00:09:29,940 and enables you to create the angle of cone. 166 00:09:29,940 --> 00:09:32,690 By default, the access endpoint is 167 00:09:32,690 --> 00:09:34,550 a relative coordinate based 168 00:09:34,550 --> 00:09:36,130 on the center of the base. 169 00:09:36,130 --> 00:09:38,470 The top radius option 170 00:09:38,470 --> 00:09:42,810 create a truncated cone. 171 00:09:43,940 --> 00:09:48,570 I'm going to give a height, click here, 172 00:09:48,570 --> 00:09:53,320 I'm changing the visual style to conceptual.
