To finish off the top section of the desk, I’d like to add two boards to the inside that separate the desk drawers. Select the four edges and drag the arrow inward to create a half-inch Chamfer. We can hide the sketch so it’s not in the way. I’d also like to add a half-inch miter on the front of each board. This will ensure this board remains a unique body. Before committing the Extrude, we’ll also want to select the badge and change the operation type to “New Body”. Keep in mind that we’ll need to select all five sketch profiles. Then, I’ll extrude to the thickness of an ⅛”. I’ll create a diagonal rectangle from one corner to the other. Remember, the purple points will help us snap to existing geometry. Let’s create an ⅛” board on the backside. This allows us to place the second board without defining any dimensions. We can then use the Copy badge and rotate this 180 degrees. After selecting the body, we can move the selection point to the center axis. Notice the axis now runs vertically through the plane. This allows us to select the top planar face, then select the center of the face where it snaps to the center. We’ll use Perpendicular to Face at Point. To create the board on the opposite side without knowing the distance or doing any math, we can create a construction axis to reference.įrom the add menu, select the construction axis. Make sure to select both profiles, and Extrude back 22 inches. With the Line tool, we can sketch out the side board by tracing the existing geometry. We can use the Chamfer tool or simply shift-select both inner edges parallel to the Y-axis, and drag the arrow or type out half an inch.Īpplying this miter now will allow us to sketch on the front face. I’d like the top and bottom boards to join the side boards with mitered corners. That leaves us with a total distance of 4.5 inches since the transform icons are in the middle of the 3D body. We can quickly copy this by double-clicking to select it, select the copy badge, then move this up 4 inches. I’ll then extrude this to a depth of 22 inches. The width of the desk will be 52 inches, with a board thickness of half an inch. With a diagonal rectangle, I’ll sketch the front profile of the board. I’ll start by creating the main body of the desk, followed by the legs. We’ll look at using the Loft tool, Replace Face, and additional tips to quickly create multi-part models. I’m Kevin Kennedy, and today we’ll design a modern wooden desk. Welcome to Day #8 of Learn Shapr3D in 10 Days for Beginners.
