I'm trying to put a hole through a solid with counterbores on both sides. I can do that, but when I later move the hole, one of the counterbores will not follow. Here are my steps:
- 1) Make a sketch with 20x20mm square with a 10mm diam circle inside
2) Pad #1 out 20mm to make cube with a 10mm hole
3) Make a new sketch on same plane as #1 with a 12mm diam circle with the center coincident with the hole from #1. To align the circles, I use the icon with the blue dashed line above a blue box ("create an edge link to an external geometry") to highlight the existing hole edge and it's centerpoint. Then use the coincident tool to line up the centerpoint of the new circle with the centerpoint of the existing hole.
4) pocket #3 circle 4mm deep so now there is a 4mm deep counterbore (shoulder) concentric with the hole
5) Flip the cube over and do the same thing as #3, but on a new sketch on the opposite side.
Thanks for any help.
