Beveled Tube

Hi all

I want to model this drawing and I would like to know your techniques because I dry quite a bit...
I proceed with inclined planes but I think there must be a few things simpler and faster, right?

Hello

Which version are you on?

Yes sorry, I'm on SW 2020 :sweat_smile:

Hello;
Can you submit your work under Solidworks (*.sldprt) so that we can evaluate your method,
and this would allow us to have some dimensions...
Is the part symmetrical? Folded? Machined? Hollow volume (shell)? (a piece of the AA cup is missing).

Kind regards

Good evening

I can give you 2 possibilities, either work with a mechanically welded profile (in case where you often reuse the same profile, or use bossing and material removal):

Solution 1:

  1. Create Profile:
  2. Create the sketch for the length of the tube:
  3. Create the mechanically welded element with the profile:
  4. Creating a boss to close the tube with a hole:

Solution 2:

  1. Create a boss with the hole already in it:
  2. Remove excess material

This gives in the 2 cases:

So either it's good, or I'm tired and it's time to go to sleep :slight_smile:

(I couldn't put + image because the site considering me as a new user, only allows me to publish one image at a time)

Kind regards

Hello

The second solution of @jchenoix seems to me the most suitable, but using an inclined plane as an end of function for the beveled bottom of the tube.
Example with SW 2020:

Hi
