Different Linked Parts from Base Part


Malcolm Crowe

Recommended Posts

If you need to create linked parts with unique features, then this is possible with "Structured" parts, and using "Associate Brep with Body". If this description doesn't make sense, it means associating an external Brep part (or multiple parts - one by one) with the Body of the structured part.

In the attached video I have started with a Base Part (using structured mode). From this Base Part the "Body" is saved to separate external parts (Linked Part 1 and Linked Part 2). For demonstration purposes these Linked Parts are inserted into the same scene as the original Base Part. As their starting point these Linked Parts share the same Body of the Base Part. If the Base Part changes, then these changes are reflected in the Linked Parts. However, these linked parts can also have additional unique features added to them.
