Sketching the First Revolve Profile Arc

Now sketch and dimension the arcs and lines needed to complete the profile. First create the small arc at the top of the sketch.

  1. Click Tangent Arc (Sketch tab).
    You might need to click the down arrow on the Arc flyout button to select the Tangent Arc tool.
  2. Click the endpoint of the top horizontal line, move the pointer to the right, then downward.
    Watch the pointer for feedback and for inferencing. As you sketch, inferencing pointers and lines help you align the pointer with existing sketch entities and model geometry.
  3. When the radius is approximately 10mm (R=10) and the vertical inferencing line is visible, click again.
  4. Click Smart Dimension on the Sketch tab and dimension the arc radius to 10.
