Alias Wheel Tutorial – part – 5Author: graham

Objectives:

  • Projecting and trimming bolt hole

  • Building internal surfaces for bolt Hole

  • Filleting surface edges

  • Mirroring the 36 deg half segment accross the YZ plane to form the first segment of the 5 segment wheel

  • Create an eliptical, conical, curved spoke

  • Learn how to allow space for the creation of fillet surfaces later on in your work flow

  • Create curves on surface using the Tubular Offset Control tool

  • Repair c-os that are short of the relevant surface edge

  • Cretate freeform fillet surfaces

Here goes:

1uHere’s our half segment comprising the Rim, Hub and Spoke geometry

Check that in creating the curve in the spoke you haven’t moved it in the X axis

Zoom in very close and check that the vertical surf. edges of the spoke are still absolutely placed on the YZ pane where you created themIf anything is wrong you must reposition the half spoke so that it is sitting in the right place (if you have moved it or rotated it by mistake and can’t recover position, then delete it and build a new half-spoke surface)
1u1

If all is well >edit >duplicate>mirror and mirror the half spoke accoss the YZ plane

Now you have created one segment of the 5 seg. wheelAll you have to do now is >edit>duplicate>object
1u3

>edit >duplicate>object.

Set up the options box to create 4 copies and rotate 72 deg. each copy. This will produce your complete wheel geometryHere is the rim rendered in “Powertracer”
