Best way to draw
Best way to draw
(OP)
Hi,
I have drawn the shape below.
http ://i423.ph otobucket. com/albums /pp315/ska boy607/Uni /heat_exch anger_half inch_2.jpg
I drew it using the line tool and then applying the desired radius I require of 38.1 mm. I then used the 'tube' tool to create the shape with required inner and outer diameters I require.
The inner and outer radius' are smaller and larger respectively. How can I create shape that has my desired radius but on the internal bend?
Thanks a lot

RE: Best way to draw
That aside, I'm not sure exactly what it is that you're asking for. Are you trying to get the inside bend radius of the tubes to be 38.1 mm?

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

Yes, that's exactly what I want.
