Lesson 22 Tapered Plate

When modeling tapered plate

  • Find the largest thickness and start with a plate size that will cover that.
  • Use Contour plates to model tapered plate.
  • Subtract from the stock to arrive at the corner thickness
  • Check whether the tapered face is on a plane by looking for fold lines (edge lines) of the surface.If there are edge(fold) lines on the surface that mean that face is not on a single plane.
