    Hello All,

    I will be giving a very rudimentary talk on SW surfacing at our next
    SWUG (MARISUG) meeting. So my question for Ed or Matt (or anyone else
    for that matter) is; How do you guys do the exploded surfaces thing,
    like the ones in your PowerPoints?

    An example is on Matts HybridModeling PPT slide # 17.

    Thanks,
    Muggs

    those are just offset surfaces

    offset the faces one by one, not all together. if you do them all
    together, they will extend to stay in contact.

    Best of luck!

    or put equal radius fillets around a block and use delete face with the
    delete option to delete all of the fillet faces.

    AHH! (sound of lights going on) one surface at a time.

    You know, for a pretty smart guy, I still am so amazed at how stupid I am.
    Thanks Matt, You're the man!

    Good luck, Muggs. I'm sure it will be great.
