Round duct with swaged end - quick and dirty


HDEAR

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I often need to make up odd sized round duct spigots with swaged ends. Because it's not worth doing this in a sheet-metal feature ( and wouldn't unfold anyhow ) I use this quick and dirty method to draw up something that looks almost real.

You can easily change the swage size by editing the Torus sketch if you need

Then, how can you make that part in real?? Or is it not necessary to make it? It looks like a tin barrel or a flue...

That is such simple work for any duct manufacturer or 'sheetie' to make, you never need to give them a 1:1 unfolded DXF. It's more for our drawings, especially sales drawings and Keyshots for product catalogues.
