Create two parts from split part

Split a part into two parts, and rename each part.

Files created with this workflow are not associative to each other, or to the original source file. If associativity is required, use the Split Solid method in a multibody part.

  1. Sketch a parting line on a part face.
  2. Click Save As Save Copy As to save the part with the parting line and both halves intact.
  3. Use Split and the Trim Solid method to split the part and remove the selected half.
  4. Use Save Copy As to save the first half of the part.
  5. Open the original file, then use Split and the Trim Solid method to remove the other half of the part.
  6. Use Save Copy As to save the second half of the part.

Both halves of the part are now saved in separate, unique files.
