creatng fillets off a 2d wire frame

how do I create a fillet off of a 2D wire frame

[crazy^millman]

In what way Rick V9 or X?

In V9 Create, Fillet, Click Radius to change the zie of the Radius.

In X Create, Fillet, Fillet Entities, then look to the Ribbon bar for the size you want.

 

For either you then pick the 2 entities you want to fillet, just make sure they are bigger than the radius you are creating. If wanting a arc tangent to 2 entities then you will want to use Arc tangent.

Sorry i left a lot of information out. In X and I need to make the 2D wire frame into 3D to make the edges have a radius

Probably the simplest way to explain would be to

Create a rectangle into 2D top construction view and fillet the corners as needed as Millman stated. Then...

 

click on XForm Translate icon/

 

click on: all chain icon in the chain manager/

click on: an entity and the chain will probably go all around if no branch points are intersecting/

 

accept the chain when all geometry needed is selected (click on check mark)/

 

click the join choice at top/

 

enter a Z value with a minus dimension/

 

accept it with (check mark)
