Sketch constraints in detail - 3D design for 3D printing pt10

To get the best out of 3D printing, it helps if you can design your own parts. In this tutorial series, we will learn to use a free 3D CAD program to do just that. In this episode, I meet a frequent viewer request to cover sketch dimensions and constraints in more detail. We design a mainboard adaptor mount using a dimensioned diagram, then build a frame around it. A future video is planned where I design a more complex part from start to finish to show all of the little problems and how to fix them. All of these tools have a dedicated help page - Onshape sketch tools help menu: 0:00 Introduction 3D design for 3D printing Onshape playlist: Direct link to create a free account: Source CAD for tutorials: 0:40 What we are designing BTT Manta M4P GitHub: 1:06 Basic mainboard sketch 2:32 Equal constraint 3:21 Applying diagram dimensions 4:30 Horizontal and Vertical constraints 5:46 Construction lines with Equal constraint 7:57 Basic frame sketch 8:16 Tangent constraint 8:47 Normal constraint 9:15 Concentric constraint 9:43 Coincident constraint 10:22 Midpoint constraint 10:43 Mirror tool 11:08 Symmetry constraint 11:26 Alternate use of coincident constraint 11:39 Parallel constraint 11:56 Coincident constraints beyond the current sketch 12:36 Pierce constraint 12:47 Perpendicular constraint 13:03 Final dimensions and trim tool 13:38 Over constrained geometry 14:32 Finished part Buy quality and affordable filament from X3D.
