I know you did this 4 years ago but it has given me hope. I have a part that is fairly simple rectangle and has holes in certain places in the center and left side and the 4 screw holes in each corner. Now the part has to be made 3/4 of an inch longer but only move the two right screw holes with the right side. Tinkercad wants to move all of them when I increase the length, I thought I would have to redo the entire part.
Thanks, said very straightforward. Only one thing - you can end up with one half shorter by 0.01mm. This is not really an issue, unless you want to work on the model further and make some calculations. Check the size of each half - if its XX.99 simply move the "hole" rectange by 0.01 the right way and then group together
You know, what would really help would be a video on how to make a dovetail to be able to put both halves back together with a near-indestructible connection. I haven't found any videos on how to do this with Tinkercad.
Okay so a dove tail shape that you can connect. Does it need to be hollow? And can it be glued together or do you want a press fit? Also what’s the application, if you can answer those questions I’ll make a video!
@@emill.24 My application was a softair gun grip that was too long for my printer. As I sait, I ended up making a stair and glued both parts together. It looked actually quite okay after priming and spray-painting.
I want to cut a a part in half and extend it. I really, really... prefer Fusion. I just can't figure out Tinkercad. Unfortunately Fusion makes it difficult to work the stl files without the paid version..
But what is the width of the HOLE object that was used for the cutting? Won't that width be missing from the WHOLE when you glue the pieces back together?
0.001, it is so small you won’t even notice. Can also just take one HOLE object, place it half way over a piece, merge, duplicate, unmerge, move the hole object to the other side, merge. You’ll be left with two halves.
this is great, i got stuck on ho you select both the plane and the thing you want to cut. cant seem to select both. how did you do both? NVM. HOLD SHIFT!!!!! duh :)
How to cut a circle from a square?. A round logo in a transparent square, converted to STL (this included the transparent square when converting) imported in tinkercad. how do I remove the square from around the circle?
This seems long winded with creating the .01 object etc - just duplicate the original object, create the delete box exactly ½ the width of the original object, copy it - left align on one original, right align on the other. Group each one, job done.
I cannot express enough how useful and straightforward this was
My dude thank you for the straight forward how to without the filler. Well done!
Thank you. You helped me in cutting a design in half and cutting out part of the middle in order to fit my resin printer witha small bed.

My project is 12 by 12 inches, but school 3d printer can only take up 6 by 6 inchs, now it fit
You're life saver! Thanks!

I’ve come up with a better way to do it that’s easier and more efficient might make a video soon
Have a piece I'm going to print and use for my mold to sand cast; so this was perfect. Thank you !!
Happy I could help
This was very simple and easy to understand. Great job.
Glad it was helpful!
I like to say thank you for this video this help me out quite a bit
I needed to be patient, but I got it. I'm grateful for you posting this, thanks!
Thank you! Concise and easy to understand.
You’re a legend mate!
Thanks! I too have a tiny printer, this is gonna be sooo useful!
This helped so much thanks man!
Thanks man. Totally worked.
you the man. so concise and to the point. much appreciated
Thanks! Just what I needed.
7:15 i like this dude lol
Thank you so much for this upload!!!!!
No problem!
Thank you for doing this video it helps alot
Ufff you save me, thank you much appreciated!
Great tutorial thanks! allowd me to print a bigger object on my prusa mini
Thanks for this video!
Thanks so much! I found this super helpful!!!
Glad I could help, if you have any other questions I'd be happy to do more tinkercad videos!
Thank you so much for this tutorial,helped me a lot.
Glad it helped, if you have any questions let me know! id be happy to make more videos
thank you for doing this
Thank you sir✌️
really enjoyed your tutorial. thanks for the helpful content
glad it helped, do you have any other questions? would love to make some more design content
thank you man it works
Great Job and Thanks 2 U, I get it now...
Great tutorial thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
so weird. why dont they just add a plane-cut already
true
THANK YOU!
great video. thanks
Glad you liked it!
Thanks for your video
Thank you for help us . :)
you have saved the day
Thanks bro!

ive been looking on how to do this in any free program. Have you had any luck?
@@TheDanny Unfirtunately not. I did the next best thing and cut the object with a stair-like shape. Not very elegant, but it did its job.
@@TheSevenUpMan yea im in the same boat. I ended up doing the star trick also.

How to cut a circle from a square?.
A round logo in a transparent square, converted to STL (this included the transparent square when converting) imported in tinkercad.
how do I remove the square from around the circle?
Delete the square if it’s transparent (hole function) then export, can always undo if you need it there for some reason
How do you select two things at once like that is my question
Hold shift(might be ctrl, it’s been a while) and click both objects! You can also click and drag to highlight multiple objects.
Hey I found Marco from Attack on Titan!
amazing video
glad I could help, are there any other questions you might have? thinking of doing a series on 3d design
@@emill.24 you could do a video on how to use supports then after it prints show how to take off the supports
@@Dart- what slicer and kind of printer are you using?
@@emill.24 my printer is Ender 3 and my slicer is prusa slicer
Thank you
You're welcome!
easier to just cut in half, duplicate and flip the duplicated half.
Export them one at a time to make two files.
Good video 2.4k now
You could have just deleted half, duplicated, then mirrored the 2nd one. All in about 10 seconds.
If the model is symmetrical yes
To save space all you had to do was stack them in the same direction or put the L's inside of each other
SPOON them... exactly my thought
It's so obvious now that I know how to do it... thanks for the video!
not the best way but it works

true, probably easier this way
Won't your print be .01mm shorter?
Not building an f1 engine lol, you’ll never notice it, plus if you’re glueing it together, the glue takes up the 0.01mm…
when I try to put this in Lychee it said file needs repair
Is lychee a splicer? Try using cura or another splicer if so
Cluck cluck
Wow, what a dope.
watched this video 50 fucking times and still not working for me. Fuck tinkercad
What? that is stupid. why 328 steps?
