Chapter 8 Creating and Working with Solid Model Features
223
Corner intersections of molding can be quickly created by extruding the same shape
in two different directions and then joining the two objects. First, draw the molding
profile. Then, copy and rotate the profile fi to orient the local Z axis in the desired direc- fi
tion, Figure 8-35A. Next, extrude the two profiles the desired lengths, fi Figure 8-35B.
Finally, union the two extrusions to create the mitered corner molding, Figure 8-35C.
