Trying to connect propeller blade to hub
cpascual posted a topic in AutoCAD 3D Modelling & Rendering
How it is that I can mate the prop blade to the hub (shown) and how would I get it to wrap around it? I am new to AutoCAD and I don't really know how I would mate these two solids. Your help or any advice would be greatly appreciated. -
Hello everyone, I am a new user of AutoCAD. I have used other CAD programs like Pro/Engineer, but I am now currently using AutoCAD 2010. I am trying to model a 3-blade marine stlye propeller, but I am kind of stuck right now. I have attached an image of where I am right now in the process, but I am not sure if I am heading in the right direction or if I am going to hit a dead end soon. I have just created a hub and completed the starting point for the propeller blades using EDGESURF. From what I heard online it is somewhat difficult to model a marine style propeller, so any help or advice would be awesome. The propeller has a 12" diameter and an 18 degree pitch angle. If anyone can give me some direction I would be very grateful. Thank you.
