Copyright Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Chapter 8 Creating and Working with Solid Model Features 207 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 profi le. Then, copy and rotate the profi le to orient the local Z axis in the desired direction, Figure 8-36A. Next, extrude the two profi les the desired lengths, Figure 8-36B. Finally, union the two extrusions to create the mitered corner molding, Figure 8-36C. Exercise 8-11 www.g-wlearning.com/CAD/ Complete the exercise on the companion website. Copy and rotate the profile B A C D A B Figure 8-35. A—The molding profile. B—The profile extruded to the desired length. Figure 8-36. Constructing corner molding. A—Copy and rotate the molding profile. B—Extrude the profiles to the desired lengths. C—Union the two extrusions to create the mitered corner. Note: The view has been rotated. D—The completed corner.
