This is not quite the same. This produces an extra side wall at the base of the trapezium (side closest to central hole). But it is definitely a good way if a simple four sided recess is needed.
I have realised that I totally misread your comment. I went back to do this and it works! It kind of surprised me that the command is able to handle a "to object" cut and taper the side walls all at the same time. It also does not seem to be bothered by the fact that it has only 3 side walls. I have learnt something today! Thanks!
And I can't even think of one way to do this. Thanks so much. As always I learn so much from Fusion 360 School. Of course I'll not remember them. That's what happens when you're 89.
Wow. Something for every level of Fusion proficiency here. This is a masterpiece demonstration useful workflows, including the rare Draft command and a not-too-complex, good case use of Boundary Fill.
Love these videos. This would would have been nice to have each method on a different spoke to see how the end products conpare. The last one with the fillet command makes the top thinner around the shape
Funny i saw this shape on the back of the mini2 scanner and thought "i should make a video on modeling that" Good Video as always! There are so many ways to do this. Replace face. Ruled surface, Move/copy on the face after you split it.
Your videos are almost always finding different solutions not just performing one task, so many tools to learn about which can then be applied to different problems. Could a taper angle have been applied to the original Extrude? I'm going to try it later.
Muchas gracias. El tema tratado fue bien explicado. Se entiende perfectamente. Thank you so much. The topic discussed was well explained. It is perfectly understood.
I am new to surface modeling and I was wondering how you created the slope surface body in the very first step (included in the file). Is it the surface body Midplane that determines the direction of the surface extend for the Slope plane?
For the third method revolving the profile, it leaves a curved surface not faceted planes. I don't think draft works on curved faces. I could be mistaken but I believe that is the issue.
I went back to do some experimenting by varying the draft angles. As far as I can tell, the side walls remain flat (normal to the top plane), so I don't think it is a revolved cut. There is something peculiar about faces created by draft. They tend not to be amenable to secondary operations. For example, I cannot delete a face that is created by a draft.
hi, i've seen an existing product that is being 3d printed and sold that has a really interesting desing with sweeps along many curves. I know it's a design that someone is selling, whould you like to give it an eye and maybe advice how to draw it? really I just found it interesting and wanted to redraw it, the object himself doesn't interest me. Thanks in advance
there isn't a better way....Just what works for you, in the time that you're doing the work. sometimes you may already be doing 'surface stuff'....other times , maybe you're already doing something else....Sometimes you want something easy to reverse, other times you wanna keep the tool....
I am aware that my videos have leaned more towards a narration of the steps and less towards explaining the why, especially those in the past year. I will definitely try to put in more effort in comparing methods and go through the pro and cons of each method .
It can also be done by selecting the outer profile, extrude to object (SLOPE body), with Taper angle -40deg.

The different ways to the result is what your videos make so valuable and instructive.
Thanks for the work.

you make very good use of the surface commands and split face command. Very intriguing. Thanks a lot.
Thank you for another tutorial. Another concept that I've struggled with and once again, you've presented more building options.
Wow, spread the word, we need to get more subscribers for him. Great stuff.
This is a great demonstration of why fusion is so fun to use lol
Great video, thanks, lots of useful ideas in here

Forgot about replace face! Should try that as well.

Variable fillet is a game changer! How did I not know that existed! 🤯

Nice content
Is there a particular reason you used a slope instead of plane on an angle for the first example?
I am new to surface modeling and I was wondering how you created the slope surface body in the very first step (included in the file). Is it the surface body Midplane that determines the direction of the surface extend for the Slope plane?
I created the "midplane" to serve as a sketch plane for the "slope" sketch. The "midplane" bisects the trapezium.
For the third method revolving the profile, it leaves a curved surface not faceted planes. I don't think draft works on curved faces.
I could be mistaken but I believe that is the issue.

@@Fusion360School Intriguing. I might have a play with this too. Thanks for the follow up.

thx!!!
This was a good video for sure! Thank you...err...not sure what your name is.
While I do enjoy watching all these ways to do things, I'd really appreciate a "why". Why would one technique be better and for what scenario(s).

@@BleughBleugh I didn't say one way would be better always, and what you're adding is the why I'm looking for. "This way is best when..."
