Simple Rectangle Hole Simple rectangle hole: Click Hole -> Click on Create simple hole -> select rectangle -> Placement -> select a surface to place the hole -> Click on Offset References -> Using Ctrl+left mouse key to select two references (e.g. surfaces or edges) -> Click on Shape to change the diameter, blind & tip angle ->Done

Simple Standard Hole Simple rectangle hole: Click Hole -> Click on Create simple hole -> select Standard -> Placement -> select a surface to place the hole -> Click on Offset References -> Using Ctrl+left mouse key to select two references (e.g. surfaces or edges) -> Click on Shape to change the diameter, blind & tip angle ->Done

Simple Sketch Hole Simple rectangle hole: Click Hole -> Click on Create simple hole -> select Sketch -> Click on Sketch (Options: open/sketch) -> draw a 2-D closed sketch with a centerline -> Done -> Placement -> select a surface to place the hole -> Click on Offset References -> Using Ctrl+left mouse key to select two references (e.g. surfaces or edges) -> Click on Shape to change the diameter, blind & tip angle ->Done

Standard Hole Simple rectangle hole: Click Hole -> Click on Create standard hole -> Placement -> select a surface to place the hole -> Click on Offset References -> Using Ctrl+left mouse key to select two references (e.g. surfaces or edges) -> Click on Shape to change the diameter, blind & tip angle -> ISO -> Screw size ->Done

Draft (Draft Tool) Some parts are made by sand mold casting. The wood models are designed with draft so that the wood models can withdraw from the sand molds easily. Draft Split Draft Variable Draft

Draft Draft: Click Draft -> references -> Draft Surfaces -> select the surface/surfaces which needs/need to be drafted (Using Ctrl+left mouse key) -> Draft hinges -> select surface or edge as draft hinges -> Using mouse drag to change the angle (range: -30 deg ~ 30 deg) ->Done

Split Draft Split Draft: Click Draft -> references -> Draft Surfaces -> select the surface/surfaces which needs/need to be drafted (Using Ctrl+left mouse key) -> Draft hinges -> select surface or edge (e.g. ‘FRONT’ plane) as draft hinges -> Split (default: No split) -> Split by draft hinge -> Side options -> (Draft sides independently, Draft sides dependently, Draft first side only, Draft second side only) ->Done

Variable Draft Variable Draft: Click Draft -> references -> Draft Surfaces -> select the surface/surfaces which needs/need to be drafted (Using Ctrl+left mouse key) -> Draft hinges -> select surface or edge as draft hinges -> Using mouse drag to change the angle -> Click on Angle -> Using right mouse key to select Add angle -> add #, angle & location into the table ->Ok
