Blending Effective Edge with Tip Width Radius

Designing my second board and I now understand this is probably why the first did not ride so well.. I now understand this is usually the 'secret ingredient' in the feeling of a board after reaching out to a few companies but I am still unsure how to properly blend the curvature of my nose width wit...

Re: Designing Multi -Radius Sidecut AutoCAD/Fusion 360

I suppose it is my cad software I am using, it does not allow tangent constraints on arcs/circle radiuses.. Are you setting the coordinates of the arc to the contact length (i.e 1170mm) and adding a radius (i.e 7.5) and then where the insert packs are adding another radius (i.e 8 ) to begin before o...

Re: Designing Multi -Radius Sidecut AutoCAD/Fusion 360

I appreciate both replies, It seems to blend them smoother on Fusion 360 - My version of CAD was the issue it seems(?) My last question is more of an opinion I suppose.. When I blend with the tangents I want, where do i place these radiuses? Is it best two do two circles as Ive seen and place one at...

Designing Multi -Radius Sidecut AutoCAD/Fusion 360

I am having trouble designing a progressive sidecut on my board. I am looking to have a wider radius in middle and then tighter radius with a blend under foot (something around 7.1/7.9/7.1). It seems I am too new to this and unsure where or how to blend these radiuses along the sidecut.. the two rad...
