What a learning experience! It took 12 version saves to get “close”. And I’m

Looks good. You chose a relativle simple part for your first, unlike me:
| |
1. Parts 41855 and 47457 have 4 pairs of 1 LDU ridges/clips opposite on each
corner. s41855s01 does not represent them. Should it? Is there a specific
primitive or do I use a cuboid to represent these ridges/clips in 47457?
|
Don’t worry about those. They’re non-funtional and insignificant
| |
3. MORE IMPORTANTLY, how to I get a good measurement on the inside curve? My
caliper’s wire tail is not pointed so I had to guess by adding 1 LDU.
|
Guessing is fine as long as you’re not too far off.
