Re: CADing a baseplate

Just to add another method (that I think will work) you can also make the appropriate ranges using linear pattern in sketch, and then extrude the triangles. In the Extrude menu check "Draft Inward" and make the degree very steep, to get the diamond plate effect. I also think that you can extrude all of your diamonds in one extrude command, and thus later change the drafting angle and the overall look of the diamonds pretty easily.

Hope that helps!!
