To Model the Trunk of a Parametric Tee Fitting

Use this procedure to model the trunk of the tee fitting. You add the circular geometry, create the profile, and apply an extrusion modifier.

1. To create the trunk of the tee, in the part browser, right-click YZ Plane and click Add Profile Circular.
2. Select a center point in the modeling area and specify a second point, or enter 12" (305 mm), to define the radius.
   

   A circular profile is created and is added to YZ Plane in the part browser.

3. In the part browser, right-click Modifiers and click Add Extrusion.
4. Select the circular profile in the modeling area.

   The Extrusion Modifier dialog box appears.

5. Under Termination, select MidPlane for Type, enter 20" (508 mm) for Distance, and click OK.
   

   A cylinder is created to represent the trunk of the tee and an extrusion modifier is added to Modifiers in the part browser.
