💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Selecting a face or edge instead of a centerline as the axis.

Using a sketch point which cannot define an axis.

The revolved cut requires a centerline as the axis of revolution to properly create the cut.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 90 degrees which is a quarter revolution.

Using 360 degrees which is a full revolution.

Setting the angle to 180 degrees creates a half revolution cut.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'Undefined' which causes errors.

Using 'Reverse' which is not a valid direction setting.

The direction must be set to SingleSide or BothSides. 'SingleSide' is the correct option to fix the error if the code was missing this.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to define a revolved cut with a sketch and axis.

Solidworks

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using an edge instead of a centerline for the axis.

Using the wrong sketch that does not define the profile.

The revolved cut requires a sketch and a centerline axis. 'Sketch1' and 'Centerline1' are the correct inputs.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to create a revolved cut with sketch, axis, and angle.

Solidworks

RevolvedCut.Define([1], [2], [3])

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using an edge instead of a centerline for the axis.

Using an angle outside the valid range.

The revolved cut needs a sketch, a centerline axis, and an angle. 'Sketch3', 'Centerline2', and '270' degrees are correct.
