I need to make a Cut Extrude on one side of a part and to make a mirror Cut Extrude on the other side of the part. The attached Project shows the Cut Extrude on one side. I produced the cut extrude by inserting a plane at the required angle to the part and Sketching the dimensions of the CE. My problems are:
1. I am unable to correctly position the CE on the body. I can't create any dimensions between the Part and the CE.
2. How can I make the mirror CE and how do I position it on the other side of the part.
3. And I should ask... am I using the correct approach; ie, using an angled plane and Cut Extruding?
Please note that I am using 2010 version.
