hello friends welcome to Frecad tutorial
0:03
and in this tutorial we will learn how
0:05
we can reorient sketch with
0:09
offset in Frecad and for this tutorial I
0:12
am uh using the Frecad version 1.0 so
0:16
you must have at least uh Frecad version
0:19
1.0 or the higher version
0:22
so here I will create a new file and I
0:25
will uh create a body and then create a
0:27
sketch and uh I will uh select the top
0:30
plane and I will create a simple
0:35
hexagon and uh I will uh apply the
0:39
horizontal constraint to this and
0:41
uh this and let's constrain
0:45
it and uh provide the dimension of uh
0:52
100 and it is fully constrained so let's
0:55
close it and now we will uh create a
1:00
pad so we will uh select the sketch
1:03
click on the pad and uh provide the
1:06
distance of uh 20 mm and say
1:12
now we will uh create one more features
1:15
on this face so select the face and uh
1:18
click on the sketch and here I will uh
1:21
create a circle and select a smart
1:25
dimension and uh provide it 100 mm click
1:30
on close and now we will uh create the
1:35
pad of uh 10 mm and say
1:40
okay now we will on our origin plane so
1:45
you can see that we have created this
1:48
body on a top plane so you can see that
1:52
we have created our feature on a top
1:55
plane and let's imagine you want to
1:59
create this feature on a front plane or
2:04
plane you have no need to delete this
2:07
features and uh create everything from
2:09
the scratch with the reorient option in
2:13
a free CAD we can easily do that so if
2:17
we expand our browser tree so we can
2:20
find here the sketch and sketch 001 so
2:25
sketch is a parent and sketch 001 is a
2:29
child because this pad we have created
2:32
on this face so this pad is a child and
2:38
this our base feature is a parent so if
2:41
we reorient the parent and child will
2:43
get automatically oriented so if you see
2:47
the part design workbench and uh here
2:50
under the sketcher you will not find the
2:53
option but if you go to the menu tab so
2:56
here you will find the sketch options so
2:59
here is a reorient sketch option but it
3:03
is inactive because we have not selected
3:06
any sketch so once we select any sketch
3:10
and go to the sketch options so this
3:12
option get active so click on it and
3:15
here you will uh see the message just
3:18
say yes so once you say yes you will see
3:22
the cube with the plane options so
3:25
currently we have created on a XY plane
3:29
which we can see here XY plane and now
3:32
we wanted to move to the exit plane so
3:36
select the exit plane and here is a
3:41
well you can provide the offset value
3:44
now select this exit plane and uh select
3:48
the okay and now close it and now you
3:52
will uh see that uh our uh body is got
3:56
uh reoriented on a front plane and let's
4:01
reorient this to the right plane so
4:04
again select the sketch and uh go to the
4:07
sketch options and click on the
4:10
reorient and here if you
4:13
see we will uh switch to the YZ plane so
4:16
select the YZ plane and uh click on the
4:19
okay and now close the sketch so you can
4:25
our plane is got reorient and now let's
4:30
again move this to the top plane so
4:33
select the sketch and
4:36
uh go to the reorient options and uh
4:41
select the xy plane and in this case we
4:44
will uh add the some offset value so
4:47
let's provide the offset value
4:52
50 and uh say okay and now close
4:56
it now if we see the right view we can
5:00
see that we have provided the offset
5:02
value so it got automatically offset so
5:08
with the help of a reorient sketch we
5:12
can not only reorient our plane but we
5:15
can also provide the offset
5:18
distance now of the origin plane and
5:22
uh say isometric view so this is how we
5:27
can uh reorient our uh sketch to the
5:30
different planes without deleting the
5:33
sketch or pad features so this is all
5:37
about this tutorial how to reorientate
5:40
sketch in a free version 1.0 and this is
5:44
a one of the awesome tool of a free CAD
5:47
sketcher thank you for watching and
5:50
thank you for your valuable
