    "Thru Face Does Not Intersect Path of Tool" While Extruding

    I'm attempting to extrude some holes in a body and I receive the "Thru face does not intersect path of tool" error. This doesn't make sense to me as i've done this exact protocol several other times on different sections of the part. I've attached a document containing a screenshot of the error...

    Creating a Flat Face from one with waves NX 8.5

    Decided to try your method and was met with a slew of errors. Drew my top profile, drew my bottom profile, and I drew three guide curves following the shape I wanted between these two profiles. First, when I select my top profile I am told that having multiple loops is an issue. If I only select...

    It's a solid body. Imagine a fairly narrow funnel with a wall thickness of about a millimeter, and the funnels wall has ridges instead of being straight. Kinda like this (http://www.crateandbarrel.com/collapsible-funnel/s507393). Apologies for being vague

    I'm not sure what type of file to attach to give you all the information you need. The part is a hollow shape with ridges down is length. The screenshot is a picture of the part cut in half to show that the inside follows the same ridges as the outside does. I need the inside to be flat instead...

    Creating a Flat Face from one with waves NX 8.5

    Hello all, I'm new in the field and i've been thrown into an unfamiliar program. I'm currently working on a model to be printed on our Metal Sintering machine. To do so, I need to flatten the inside of my model or else we will have printing errors. I have attached a quick print screen of the...
