Wouldn't it be cleaner to skip duplicating the cylinder, and pattern the emboss feature rather than the body. Patterning the feature keeps the body count at 1, eliminating the combine feature. Extrude the original cylinder through itself to cut it away.

Yep! That is definitely a smarter way... Thank you for sharing that. Pinning this so others can see the better way.

Wow, another gem 💎. I didn't know you could drag and rotate the embossed feature around like that !!!
@bradtallis89683 ай бұрын
Ya, I typically put the text kinda where I want it on the sketch, but I wanted to show that you can reposition the sketch in the emboss command. Thanks for watching!

So cool. Thanks Brad for explaining in just the right amount of detail other ways to use this powerful feature. Time to go do some practicing and exploring 👍😎👍

Two things that I find annoying when working with emboss are that it doesn't work with surfaces (only solids) and it always joins with the solid rather than giving you option to create separate bodies.
@bradtallis89683 ай бұрын
Ya, I wish you could create the emboss as a separate body. I could find that useful for doing over-moulding, etc. You could thicken your surface a tiny amount to do the emboss.

sure easier to position the text with this emboss tool. Versus when I did the original flagpole which wasn't as easy making fine adjustments (at least to me). <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="19">0:19</a>
@bradtallis89683 ай бұрын
Ya, creating the text on the flagpole project a few years ago was time-consuming. Emboss makes it so much easier.

And how can the "draft angle" be applied to this for removal from dies or molds?
@ikbo3 ай бұрын
This would be super useful. Currently I am move/rotating each face. No cumbersome. Having this built in would be a yuuuge time saver.
@bradtallis89683 ай бұрын
I would use the Draft command to add draft to the emboss after it was created.

I wonder if this feature could be used some how to cut threads. The most onerous being the threads used on plastic bottle caps.
@bradtallis89683 ай бұрын
You would definitely want your sketch to be correct before embossing. Make sure the pitch/angle of the rectangle you are embossing is correct before embossing. Then you could fillet/chamfer the thread.

You know there's a thread feature, right? I don't use it so I can't give much advice, but know that you need to ensure that you turn on modeling to actually use the threads. I believe the default is just a thread appearance, and that make people think it doesn't work.
