Hello friends welcome to free care tutorial and in this tutorial we will convert this
0:05
isometric drawing into the 3d model with the help of a part design workbench
0:09
so first we will make this base profile so for this we will create a new file then create a body
0:22
and create a sketch so we are going to select top plane and then I will draw a
0:39
rectangle and this rectangle is 82 by 140 so first I will make it symmetric so
0:58
I will select this point and this point and my axis and I will remove the
1:05
conflict now I will give the dimensions 82 and length 140
1:24
and we will also include this arc in our sketch so for this I will select this
1:40
three-point arc and create an arc and I will select this point and this axis and
1:49
make it a coincidence similarly I will also make it coincidence and I will
1:59
delete the conflict okay now I will trim this geometry ok so I will again give the dimension this point to this point 82 and let's see what
2:30
is unconstrained ok so we will give the radius I will make it horizontal and
2:39
this radius is of r18 so I will select the radius and give the 18 mm I will
2:55
also make it horizontal so our sketch is a fully constrained now we will extrude
3:04
it with the length of a 15 mm click on the pad and give here 15 let's say ok and now
3:32
am going to create this back side feature so for this I will select this face and create
3:43
a sketch I will rotate my view and
4:02
I will project this edge so if you see here here it is a 15 and it is a 28 so better I will project my bottom
4:24
edge in fact we have origin point so I will select a rectangle and create a rectangle
4:36
now I will select this point and line and make it coincidence total height is
4:42
of 54 so I will select this point and this point and I will give 54 and total thickness is 18 mm
5:04
So, I will select the sketch, click on the pad, I do not see my feature so I will make
5:14
it reverse and I will give here 18 mm and I will say OK
5:29
And now I will make this cut so I will select this face and create a sketch and I will project
5:41
my outer edge and I will select the three point arc and create an arc of R14
5:56
I will give the radius r14 and I will make this point and my origin point vertical and
6:09
I will make this point and this projected line with a coincidence constraint and I will
6:19
move my radius outside so that it should be visible now all I have to do to make this
6:29
profile closed and we are going to remove the material here so I will click on the pocket
6:40
and I will say true all now I will create this boss
6:49
so again I select this face and create on the sketch and I will project this arc
7:00
and I will select the three-point arc before that I will project these two
7:07
edges now I will select a three-point arc and create an arc and I will merge
7:19
this center so outer arc is r22 so I will select radius and give it r22 now I
7:34
will create an arc equal to my projected arc so I will select three point arc and
7:41
create an arc and in this case I will select these two arc and give equal
7:48
relation now I will close my profile this and this and I will switch to the
7:59
isometric and I will close my sketch and click on the pad so this pad is a 18 and
8:16
this is a 28 so 28 minus 18 is 10 mm so I will give here 10 mm so before that I
8:25
will cross check so this was the 18 my pad so that's okay now we are going to
8:35
create our next feature which will be this one and this will be the mirror
8:41
feature so I will select this face and create and sketch and from center it is
8:50
65 and the arc is r25 so I will project this edge and create a rectangle and I will delete this line and I will
9:07
select three-point arc and I will draw an arc and I will add the first
9:15
tangency relation to this I will uncheck it now I will select dimension
9:30
tool and I will select this point and my I want vertical dimension so I select
9:37
this and this it is a 65 so I will give the 65 now from the edge it is a 90 mm
9:49
so I will project this edge and I will select this and this and your horizontal
10:00
dimension of 90 mm and this radius is a 25 so I will select radius and give 25 so
10:15
we have fully constrained our profile now I will come out of the sketch and
10:20
click on the pad click on the reverse and the thickness is a 22 so I will do
10:33
here dimension 22 and I will say okay now we will mirror this feature so we
10:45
will select on the pad and click on the mirror and from here I will select
10:51
reference and I will select my mid plane and I will select on OK now I will
11:04
create these two because these two one here and one here so this is on the same
11:19
line of a 28 so again I select this face and create a sketch and I will project
11:32
geometry and I simply select a rectangle I will select this point and this point and
11:42
make it I will delete this and total height is a 28 from the base so I will select this
11:56
point and this point and give vertical dimension of 28. I will close it
12:08
so here I have projected this arc so that is not required so
12:19
I will delete this and I will delete this one and this line as well and I create line and close my profile and
12:44
I will make this line vertical. Now I will select this point and this point and click on merge and here I will remove
13:00
this conflict. Now I will close it so that is what exactly we want
13:06
Now this thickness is 12mm so I will click on the pad
13:12
I will give the 12mm and click on the reverse. I will say OK
13:19
Now I will mirror this. So I will select on the pad, click on the mirror
13:26
And I will click on select reference and I will select the mid plane So it got mirror on other side same way we will do here I will select the face and create a sketch
13:43
I will project the geometry which are required to create a rectangle and now I
13:50
will select rectangle tool and simply draw a rectangle and I will cue the
14:00
height this point to this point vertical height of 28 I will close it and I will
14:12
click on the pad reverse and this is also 12 mm say ok now let's select on the
14:24
pad and repeat the same procedure I will select my reference you can select axis
14:32
or select your reference I would prefer to select my own reference so I will
14:37
select this mid plane and you can see that it is mirror on the other side now
14:49
we will create these two hole so I will select the face and create a sketch so
14:59
this is of diameter 28 so I will project this arc and create a circle of
15:06
for 28 give the dimension now I will close it and I will simply create on the
15:18
pocket tool and from here I will select up to face and I will rotate my model
15:25
and select this face on the other side say ok now we will create this hole of
15:35
diameter 22 so I will select the face create a sketch and we will repeat the
15:42
same procedure as we did earlier now I select a rectangle and give the diameter 22
15:53
okay now I will close it and I will click on the pocket tool and from here
16:07
drop down I will select true all and say okay so you can see that how we have
16:17
successfully converted this isometric drawing into the 3d model so do not
16:24
consider this ages which you are seeing if we go to the shaded view so we can
16:30
see that it is a single body so I will on the flat lines and now we can use some
16:41
color to our part go to the princess and you can select your own shape color you
16:51
can give any color of your choice you can also visit my website macnexus.com
16:57
where I write articles and tutorials on a free cat you can also download my
17:03
tutorial source frame from the here you can also support my work by buying my
17:09
free CAD crash course for beginner it is a very basic level course for the
17:14
beginner user where a beginner user can master the free CAD and you can also
17:21
support my work on coffee.com you can buy me a cup of coffee you will get my
17:27
website link and my Ko-Fi donation page link in a video description but I would
17:35
prefer to do Chrome. So this is how to model this
17:45
isometric drawing into the 3D model with the help of a part design workbench and
17:53
I will provide this 2D drawing and this 3D model in a video description so you can
17:59
download my source file and practice accordingly
