fixed post hole clearance #5

Closed chris-angeloni closed 10 months ago

chris-angeloni commented 10 months ago

Post holes were obstructed by incomplete extrusions. In practice, these can be drilled out to use the part, but here is a model with clean extrudes.

Thanks for this! Can you please clarify what you mean? Possibly with a screenshot at the parameters you used?

Sure, the current model on the repo (NP2_DockingHolder) looks like this: image

I modified it to have full hole clearance: image

I did not use any parameters (I have not used AutoCAD Inventor before), but simply made a circular extrusion that was the diameter of the post holes in both directions.

Edit: because this file is linked to the docking part (NP2_Docking), Inventor also changed this part, which is included in this commit.

Thanks for spotting this! It was because an extrusion was not selected during the mirroring operation. I've now fixed this and updated the parts. I'm closing this request just for consistency across parts (rather than adding the extra extrusion). But thanks again for pointing this out! Please let us know if you have any other issues.
