To create the hexagonal capnut, you have to create a further sketch, which covers the head cap raw body as template and removes the overlaying material. Choose Plane YZ for sketch 2: |
By mouse-clicking outside the hexagonal area, set the starting point of the rectangle. In connection with the information in the context menu, the starting point should be placed at the top right (positive x/y area).
Extrude the rectangle diagonally, until it encloses the hexagon and fix it with a mouse click again.
Fill out the fields of the menu window following the illustration.
In order to close the second sketch, click on Accept changes. --> The view switches into the 3D view. |
