12. Create cylinders for the counterbore and the through hole in the
bushing bracket:
Main Menu > Preprocessor > -Modeling- Create >
-Volumes- Cylinder > Solid Cylinder + WP X = 0
WP Y = 0
Radius = 1
Depth = -0.1875, then [Apply] WP X = 0
WP Y = 0
Radius = 0.85
Depth = -2, then [OK]
Or issue: CYL4,0,0,1, , , ,-0.1875
CYL4,0,0,0.85, , , ,-2
13. Subtract the two solid cylinders to form the counterbore and bush-
ing through-hole:
Main Menu > Preprocessor > -Modeling- Operate >
-Booleans- Subtract > Volumes + Pick the two volumes that
form the base and the arch of the bushing bracket [Apply]
Pick the counterbore cylinder [Apply]
Pick the same two base volumes [Apply]
Pick the through-hole cylinder [OK]
