How to model BricsCAD Maintenance ∞?

juliette1699

I initially tried connecting two torus shapes but faced difficulties in achieving a smooth transition. Instead, I followed these steps to successfully create the infinite loop model:

1. Draw a Square and a Circle – Use the RECTANGLE and CIRCLE commands to create a square and a circle.
2. Combine the Shapes – Align the circle inside the square and trim any overlapping sections.
3. Mirror the Shape – Use the MIRROR command to duplicate the shape and form the ∞ (infinity) outline.
4. Connect and Divide Sections – Use JOIN， OFFSET， polylines (PLINE) and trimming (TRIM) to refine the shape, ensuring smooth transitions.

2. Creating the 3D Model

1. Extrude Where Needed – Apply the EXTRUDE command to give depth and volume to the shape.

3. Final Refinements

1. Apply Colors or Materials – Assign different colors to the sections to enhance the visual appeal.

This method allowed me to create a clean and structured infinity shape while maintaining smooth transitions. Hope this helps others trying to achieve a similar design! 🚀
