** Notice that even though we did not sketch a radius at the corner it is automatically

included in the feature. This is because you choose the option of Use Radius for this
wall. It will take the straight section you sketched and include a radius transition
between the two walls. **

** So far we have created a Flat wall and an Extruded wall. Before we continue lets
look at the reason why choosing certain attach edges makes a big difference. If you take
a look at the figure below this shows how the new wall is created. The example on the
left shows the back edge being used as the reference and the thick line is the sketched
section. The added thickness is included to the interior of the part in this example. Now
if you look at the right figure the edge on the front is used for the section. The added
thickness is now included to the exterior of the part. If you want to control the outer
dimensions of the wall then you want to do the first example and vice versa for the other.
This is why choosing a particular edge can be an advantage over the other. **

** Now we will create some attach points to the bottom of this bracket so it can be
attached to the chassis it will mount into. **

** Sketch the section as shown in the following image. This will be a partial wall from
the end of the extruded wall. **

** Please notice that this is not a rectangle. You do not need to sketch an edge along the
magenta edge that is being shown in your sketch. **

SKETCH menu: click the check mark to finish the sketch, #w/Relief, #Done.

** Now when creating a bend relief for these walls pay attention to which end it is
prompting you for. Zoom in on the edge and look at which end is being highlighted in
Red. For this example the right edge shown in the sketch will have no relief and the left
edge will have a relief. **

RELIEF TYPE menu: #No Relief (for right side of edge), #Done, #ObrndRelief (for
left side of edge), #Done, #Thickness, #Tan to Bend, #Thickness, #Okay.

** Notice the image above. This shows the obround bend relief, which is a new function
as of version 2000i2. **

** Now as a separate task go ahead and create the identical foot on the opposite side of
the wall as shown below. This time a rip relief will be needed at one side and an obround
relief on the other. **
