Inventor 101: Cut Extrude, Fillet and Hole Commands

Trevor English • 12 June 2018

In this Inventor 101 video, you’ll learn how to transform a 2D sketch into a 3D part. Learning these skills is essential to laying a proper foundation as you build on your Inventor knowledge.

Utilizing the extruding tool to pull or push out a 2D sketch is a crucial step toward becoming an Inventor pro. Extrude can’t do it all though, so you can transform this simple extrusion with fillet and hole commands. Check out how to do all of this in the video below!
