Useful info on manufacturing aspects of hard edges I always wondered about those

Thanks!

Hi, splendid tutorial tho i have a question. Say im modelling a 2d airfoil with open trailing edge and use an arc to connect them. Then if i use fit spline, it will alter the inital imported curve of the airfoil. So how do i approach this kind of problem only by modifying the arc/spline used to connect the open trailing edges instead of the imported initial spline of the airfoil?

Great for smoothing things out, terrible when you need to make changes later.

Hey Graham, If you delete the Spline created by the Fit Splint tool, the original sketch entities will be available as construction geometry which you can use to make updates if needed, or revert back to normal sketch entities. Happy sketching!

@@goengineer Totally, just breaks references to that spline if you referenced it later on, but that can't be avoided sometimes.

Excellent!
