You’re very welcome Vicky. Always happy to help others. I’ve got a few teachers using these tutorials with their students also. I’m going to upload another video soon about the 5 fundamental mistakes I made when first using Fusion360. Thanks for watching. Regards Aaron
in the case of a rigid joint, where there is no movement, what is the advantage vs just moving the second timber to sit in the rebate of the first one?
Hey Justin, I'm a bit confused with your question. You are asking about 45 degrees? The cross halving cut out size is 42 x 42mm to a depth of 9.5mm. You can always edit your sketch in the time line by right clicking on it and select edit sketch. If this is not the answer you're looking for, can you direct me to a time in the video so I can see for myself? Aaron.
@@DCT_Aaron_Engineering I know it's a year ago, but I think what he meant was what if the joint wasn't 90 degrees (perpendicular). It's easy enough to sketch a perfect rectangle to cut a lap joint in the wood. But what if the wood pieces crossed at some weird angle like 45 or 60 or anything. I'm struggling with that now. I'm trying to fit to cross members on the side of a table. I'm trying with projected points sketch where the cross member would meet, but no luck.
@@kapnkerf2532 Hey. I just did the exercise again and drew the halving joint on the angle. You can do it either by sketching the angle joint and extrude cut or (top) or sketch on the side and sweep cut along an angle path. Then repeat using the top down method shown.
