Hi All

I have created an arch as a part I have then used assembley to put two arches togeather to form a circle (Flange). Now in assembley mode I want to cut out a hole and then array it arround the circle(Flange). When I do this it only ceates holes in one half of the Circle (Flange). Any ideas ??????

Flash,

Can you maybe take a couple of screen shots or images to help us understand?

I presume you are using the assembly cutout feature. When you say it only creates a hole in the one half of the circle I also presume that it only puts the holes in one part and not in both.

If this is the case check the follow:

1) In the assembly cutout feature make sure which direction you specify the cut should happen

2) Make sure that you select which parts should be cut and that the correct ones have been selected.

3) Make sure what options you are using for the command: whether it is it is assembly driven features or simple assembly features. (If you are using assembly features and the you use the same part for both arches then the hole would not necessarily be replicated in both arches, but with assembly driven features that part will be permamently be changed).

That is some of my thoughts.
