How to Use the Fillet Tool in AutoCAD: A Step-by-Step Guide 🤔🔧🚀✨

Hello and welcome to this video learning series of audio care. Today we are going to do an example that will help us understand how to use the fillet tool in AutoCAD. Let's get started!

What We Need to Do Today 📝🔧

To create this sketch, we first need to create a rectangle of length 500 and width 300.
1. TypeRandC, press enter.
2. Address the first point of the rectangle (we'll call it Point A).
3. Specify the length and width: typelength is 500, width is 300and press enter.
Now you have a rectangle! If you look into this sketch, we have two corners that need to be filleted.

Creating Fillets with the Fillet Tool 🧰🎨

1. Go to the Fillet tool.
2. In the Modified panel, find the drop down and click on it (the first option is Fillet).
3. The command line now says Select first object. We need to specify the radius for our fillets, so click on the Radius option.
4. Set the Fillet Radius to your desired value (for example, 100).
5. To create a fillet at a corner, use the Multiple Options of the fillet tool.
6. Select the first object that needs filleting (for example, the line between Point A and another point).
7. The command line now says Select second object. Select the second object connected to the first object that needs filleting (for example, the vertical line next to it).
8. Repeat this process for each corner that requires a fillet.

Changing Fillet Radius 🔄🎨

If you want to change the radius of your fillets during the process:
1. Click on theRadiusoption again.
2. Change theFillet Radiusto your desired value (for example,50).
3. Continue creating fillets with the new radius.

And That's It! 🎉🏆
