I have a part that is currently a multibody part. It is two (of 5) parts of a case. I have been working on it as a multibody part for a while because where the two parts needed to be split kept changing. I am getting near the end of the design and things have settled down. At this point I can either copy my part to two parts and then go in and delete the features that make the body I won't need, or I can keep my part that has both bodies in it and save the bodies out to separate parts (and if I save the bodies out to separate parts, I would like recommendations on the best way to do that and maintain associativity). One of these parts is overmolded, so I will be doing additional work to divide the part into the overmold and the rigid sections. Which approach would you take and why? Also, I have a helper now so am needing to have these parts split out so that we can both work on this at the same time. (I work on the middle while he works on the bottom.)
Thanks,
Carrie
