Unattached Wall Command Significance

It gives you the opportunity to define walls that are hard to create as a number of flanges, and merge them afterwards.

Sip,


Is that the font or the design you are talking about? If it is the font then there are fonts available that you can use that will do those link tabs for you (Srinihad one in a post last week)

Hi Kev,


I made this a few years ago, and just used the filled font, I was on 2001 then. To my dismay I realized that the centers would drop out of my letters. What to do? So I came up with unattached/merged walls as a solution. I can't think of anywhere else I have used this, and I can't think of any other application right now.


This is why I follow the forum. It's just like a big classroom where the teacher answers allkinds ofquestions, and everyone learns from it, I think it's great!

Hey Sip,


Couldn't agree with you more on that last point and 2001 explains why you went that route. When it comes to unattached planes, I often use them (similar to AHA-D's post)when I have a wall that I need to 'reach' over multiple bends. Kinda gives me a target to aim at (even though my target is really defined by my skeleton at the assembly level) in the shhet metal part and a final merge wall feature does wonders. I know that this leaves me with funny wall lengths, but that's the usual outcome of sheet metal design anyway.


Cheers


Kev


EDIT


Alex,


Always been curious, is the handle a reference to the band or something else altogether.....
