I do not see "Tube and Pipe" in the Begin panel. I see "Inventor Studio" and "BIM Exchange". I am running Autodesk FDSP 2013. If this feature is not a part of this software package, how do I add it?

good action

I don't quite get what we're doing with the lock pins. I would think the pins should connect the base to the cylinder but the way we are constraining them puts the pins completely inside the cylinder

I can still freely rotate the piston, causing an interference with the hinge. Did I miss a step? Were we supposed to somehow constrain the rotation of the piston rod?

Thank you for your response, Paul. I used the 3-point arc command as the other ones did not seem to work (they did not follow the projected curve). However, when I dimensioned it a reference angle dimension of (0.00) was created.

good stuff!

I'm not sure what the use of this is. Doesn't pan do the same thing?

good info in the comments!

Agreed thanks for making text step-by-step tutorials available

I used the chair in the factory assets under architectural > furniture and after sending it to inventor it is still in 2D. When I manually import that same asset in inventor to try and overlay it over the 2d version, I can't figure out how to align it.
