 | | Accuracy of curved surfaces
|
| I have a parts-author question. I am working on 'Electric Train 12V Brick 2 x 4 with Power Pickup' (Step 8 in: (URL) part contains some curved surfaces that cannot be done with primitives (very odd angles, like 41.112 degrees, 36.082 degrees and (...) (21 years ago, 31-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad)

| (...) Generally, I create curved surfaces by using the appropriate primitives. Once I've got the primitive sized to create the surface, I inline it and clip out anything that falls outside of the desired surface. So I'd use the primitive to (...) (21 years ago, 7-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad)

| (...) I forgot to mention the radii, these are between 50 and 65 LDU. I first tried 11.25 degrees, this didn´t look round enough. Later I changed this to 3.75 degrees. Now I changed this back to 7.5 degrees, which looks good enough in L3Lab and (...) (21 years ago, 7-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad)
