![]() It can contain "islands", or smaller closed profiles, but they must not cross or be tangent to the outer profile. To produce a valid face, a sketch must contain a single outer closed profile, which must not be crossed by other geometry. Internally, when creating a Pad or Extrude, the software must first create a face out of the provided sketch, then extrude it in the 3rd dimension. I'm guessing you are talking about the sketch labeled "Clamp handle"? It is to be expected that padding it would produce such an error. It is not often that newcomers make such detailed posts and supply their FreeCAD info as well as a FreeCAD file. Then a third and fourth, etc.Welcome here. Then add a second box and make sure that will pad too. For you, I suggest starting a whole new project, create one box and pad it. If it works, I keep adding complexity until it breaks, and that usually gives me a good idea of why it's breaking. The Pad tool needs contiguous, non-overlapping line segments.įYI, whenever I run into problems like this, I slap together the smallest, simplest version of the real thing I need, and try and Pad that. You need to delete the longer lines and just use the shorter lines. From what I can see in at least these places, you have lines that are partially or completely overlapping. The Pad tool doesn't know what to do with those. Then delete the 500mm constraint and join the vertices together. What I suggest you do is change one of those 400mm constraints to 500mm and see where the box separates. Most likely some of the vertexes are close together but not actually coincident. Since it is letting you do that, the box is not actually a box. Sketcher won't let you create a box (with horizontal and vertical line contraints) that has two parallel sides, both having a length constraint. If all the vertices were coincident, the Sketcher workbench would throw an error that your sketch has redundant contraints. It looks like you have two vertices that are not coincident. If you look at the circled bit here, you can see two parallel line sections that both have a 400mm vertical constraint. You have at least one problem I can see with your sketch that's preventing it from Padding correctly.
