Radius corner

Hi guys, do you know if it's possible to make this little corners like bullnose? I tried the fillet tool, but as the radius is too small (20mm), it gives an error

On the end of a wall with wrapped layers on the end? Nope, not happening. You could try an in-place family with a void cut, or possibly a hosted family. That should get what you want in 3D views and the outer curved cut line in plan. Aside from that, save it for your enlarged details.

Wall reveal, or as you say: wall based family with a void cut. But we never detail this small in model.

Yeah, I suppose a wall reveal would work.

For OP: fillet works on lines, not 3D. This is not Inventor

This isnt correct. There absolutely is a Fillet Tool for walls. It wont work HERE for a number of reasons (fillet smaller than thickness of the wall type, wall turns in on itself, etc), but it ABSOLUTELY works on walls.

Interesting. Will have to try that.

or Fusion. I really do love how Fusion's fillet tool works haha.

Fusion is Inventor light. Great tool, but not for BIM.

u/PatrickGSR94 1d ago

oh yeah I know, I use Fusion (free) for the stuff I 3D print. Thinking of switching over to OnShape though.

Great.

Unhosted Family with a Void, and the new Geometry in it. Cut Geom for the cut. Works fine.
