Swept Boss/Base with Thin Feature (Thin Sweep) This command takes a 2D profile (like a circle or an open line) and pushes it along a curved 2D or 3D path. By turning on the Thin Feature option, it does not create a solid chunk of material; instead, it adds a uniform wall thickness to the profile as it travels. Function: Instantly creates hollow bent tubes, pipes, or custom bent framing without needing to draw an inner and outer profile or use the Shell tool. Example: Drawing a single circle and sweeping it along a bent path with the Thin Feature enabled to create a curved, hollow exhaust pipe. 2. Extruded Boss/Base This command adds material. It takes a 2D sketch and pulls it in a straight line (perpendicular to the sketch plane) to create a solid 3D object. Function: Creates the primary geometric body of a part, such as a block, cylinder, or bracket. Example: Drawing a rectangle and extruding it to create a solid metal base plate. 3. Fillet This command creates a rounded edge or corner. It replaces sharp external edges or internal corners with a smooth circular radius. Function: Reduces mechanical stress concentrations to make the part stronger, improves aesthetics, and removes sharp edges for physical safety. Example: Smoothing the sharp, 90-degree corners of a machined bracket so it is comfortable and safe to handle.
