Step 1.
The Sketch you just created is known as a Profile, these curves are what will give
you the revolved shape you want. After the sketch is complete select pull, now
look to the right side of the page and note the Revolve command, click on this
i
Step 2.
You are now required to select the Axis; this is the line we want to revolve the
Profile around. The line to select for the Axis is the one highlighted purple. If you
cannot select the Axis you have probably missed it of the Profile sketch.

Step 3.
Now you have the Axis Selected the next step is to click on the Surface you want
to revolve, and hit Spacebar and type 360 and hit Enter the result is one
complete revolution and will give you a closed object. See image in red box for the
correct outcome. If you could not revolve make sure you selected the correct axis
and selected a surface or curves to revolve.
Step 4.
Next is to create a pattern on the disc mount Surface, select the Sketch Mode icon
and select the face as seen above and select the Plan View icon

Step 5.
Now select Circle from the sketch tab and using Shift Touch enter a distance
vertically of 16 and horizontally 0, and hit Enter, now hit Spacebar and type
4 and then Enter.
Step 6.
The next step is to create a Pattern. Start by clicking on the 4mm Circle you just
created making sure it turns a highlighted colour of the layer colour. Now Click on
Move

Step 7.
You are now required to select an Anchor point which you will use to create the
Pattern around. Click on the Anchor Icon as indicated by the smaller red box.
The Anchor needs to be placed in the correct location, in this case its the centre
of the circle, so hover over the centre of the circle until its highlights and click,
refer to image in larger red box for a visual guide.
Step 8.
Now look at the red box to the left of the screen, this contains Move Options,
check the options for Create Patterns and, Maintain orientation. If you cannot
revolve a pattern later on it is because these options are not selected as they
deselect once the pattern is created.

Step 9.
Look at the Red box in the bottom left corner, Click and hold on the Purple
Arched Arrow, now drag it in an Anti-clockwise or clockwise direction. You will
notice it will start to look like the above screen shoot, release the mouse and then
hit Tab
Step
10. until you are in the Count box and enter 6 and then Enter.
Step 10.
You have used Pull to add material, now you will learn how to use it to remove
material. Look to the top left of the screen, there are Pull options, + is to
add, - is to remove material. Click -, using Ctrl select the 6 circles and start
to pull, hit spacebar type 10. Now you should have 6 Holes

Step 11.
The next step is to make the spoke Holes, as there is a high volume we will save
some time. Replicate the above, the hole is 2mm and Pull the circle 50mm, it will
remove material from both parts.
Step 12.
Now Click on Move and using Ctrl Select both insides on the Holes.

Step 13.
It is the same process at steps 8 and 9,, Make sure you have Patterns and,
Maintain orientation selected and for the count use 16. Notice how quick you
have created 32 holes, and if you edit one they will all update.
Step 14.
The next step is to create the axel Hole, this can be drawn into the Profile but it is
better practice to remove the material as it can easily be edited. Using sketch mode
draw a Circle on the Surface you created the 4mm circles on, I chose 12mm for the
Circle, and using the last process you learnt create the hole.

Step 15.
Lastly add some fillets and chamfers, Refer to tutorial 1 for information.
Please Note: I highly recommend when creating multiple holes it save allot of time to
create the hole and pattern the hole, rather than pattern a circle then selecting all the
circles and removing the material. I showed you both ways so you can see how much
time and effort can be saved.
