Drehschalter - Onshape Training - Surfaces

Surface modelling in onshape is at the moment still very limited. But the basics are possible.

That was a very helpful video, Wolfgang. Much appreciated. A tedious process to be sure but gives me an idea of how powerful Onshape can be for surfacing.

[@wolfgang.walden.cad.training]

You´re welcome. I might have to do a new one, because there many new surface commands, so it is now easier to do surfacedesign in onshape.

[@Chris.Mechanic]

I will appreciate that... I watch many videos with Onshape tutorials, but this one is totally different level ;)

[@Fran-dz9xh]

Keep up the good wirk, Sir!

[@wolfgang.walden.cad.training]

I´ll try :)

[@MrApache64AH]

Great video, as a beginner to Onshape i find your videos very informative, however i would like to understand your thought processes to doing the drafting. This would then give me an idea on how to tackle problems i have in drafting, as i am currently trying to copy a metal part so i may print it on a 3D printer. thank you keep it up..!

[@wolfgang.walden.cad.training]

thanks for your praise, you could watch my onshape courses - cad for beginners on LinkedIn Learning : www.linkedin.com/learning/search?entityType=COURSE&keywords=onshape

[@MrApache64AH]

@@wolfgang.walden.cad.training Thank you for the link Wolfgang, i have signed up for the course, but it is not you running it, but Gabriel Corbett..?

[@wolfgang.walden.cad.training]

LOL - of course my courses are in german, as I´m from germany, you would have to change your language in your LinkedIn profile to german - than you could watch the german courses as well ;)

[@MrApache64AH]

Wolfgang Walden well I will watch the videos and hopefully will be much more proficient at the end of it. Danke

[@anjarkristinsinyurabal2919]

thank you very much..very usefull for my daily activity in my engineering journey,,hehhee

[@wolfgang.walden.cad.training]

Great :)

[@mrrius6553]

wow.... i did not see that coming.... mirror mirror and done !

[@wolfgang.walden.cad.training]

:)

[@francois62940]

Très belle vidéo 😀

[@wolfgang.walden.cad.training]

Merci beaucoup :) - pas de rién.

[@Chris.Mechanic]

Oh wow! I have a feeling I do not see things as you see them... ;) I have so much to learn... ;) But anyway, this video is great!!

[@wolfgang.walden.cad.training]

I will take a while - I took me some time as well ;)

[@Chris.Mechanic]

Unclear for me is how you select parts to split... Could you explain a bit how you select surfaces to split...

[@wolfgang.walden.cad.training]

There was and still is no tool to split/trim surfaces in onshape, that´s the reason I had to thicken the surface. If you split a body, you´ll get 2 bodies and you have to hide one or delete it after splitting.

[@RAFnaldE]

Thank you so much for your videos. They're really usefull. I repeated this one, step by step, and everything ran perfectly until I did the last thicken. After that a surface that was suposed to be split out just reappeared out of the blue. I tried to find what I misunderstood and did wrong but I couldn't as I'm probably too new to the software (I start learning how to use it a few days ago). I'll leave a link to the file here for if you (or anyone else) could hava a look at it: cad.onshape.com/documents/26e05f636e8150c88ba11dd3/w/facb0dc8f64635c31d8f1903/e/06fa61282d5978c31e4e2c40

[@wolfgang.walden.cad.training]

My advice would be - you should not begin with surface modelling. And you should at least do it exactly as I did, which you didn´t. (you don´t need those 2 additional planes at all) Onshape got many new features since the recording of that video, right now I could do in a better way. Solution to your problem - select the complete surface, not just one part of it, and then thicken it , that will work.
