Cutting braces (87, 89)
To define the cuts in the legs of the braces, go to:
-
Horizontal legs: Parts tab
-
Vertical legs: Extra cuts tab (87), Cuts d.1 and Cuts d.2 tab (89)
These tab pages contain options to cut the legs of the braces, and the dimensions of the cut. This is how they appear on the Parts tab:
