Example of using Shut Off Boundary to create correct blade geometry

Do you have blades that are built that look like this, with the taper, when it appears it should be straight.



To explain why this is happening is to better understanding how we "slice" the geometry to create the point cloud. Because the ID Hole of the "washer" is larger than the pin when we do the slice it hits the edge of the hole at the top and then the next point is the bottom of the pin creating that angle.

See below. See how the blade goes to the edge of the hole.


You can fix this by creating a shut off boundary it will then go to the intersection of the boundary and pin.
