Bengt Nilsson Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 I need to create a simple rectangular extrude with two sides tilted by 10 degrees. Right now the only way I know how to do this is to create two wedges and then subtract them from the extrude. However, It seems more logical to me to use "chamfer edge", but this is always 45 degrees only. The option "tangent entities" might be useful (?) but I do not understand the explanation. Can someone please suggest a convenient method to do this? Quote Link to comment
aheininen Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Taper face tool from 3D modeling tool set. Extrude piece. Select Taper face tool, select (bottom) face (with ATL), select end face, set angle with mouse or from keyboard and repeat on other end. Or Draw rectangle. Select Chamfer tool from Basic tool set, set tool mode, from Chamfer too preferences select First Line and Angle, Chamfer rectangle, extrude polygon. You can also use Loft Surface tool but there is even more steps involved. 1 Quote Link to comment
