Resizing Egg Cup
7) Click on the
lightbulbs next to
your circle
sketches in the
browser menu.
8) All the light
bulbs should now
be yellow and you
should see the
circles in your egg
cup.
In order to fit a larger egg into our egg cup we need to make the diameter of circle 3 and circle 4 larger.
First lets start with Circle 3:
9) Right click on
“Circle 3” then select
“Edit Sketch”
10) Your screen should
now look like this.
11) To view Circle 3 on it’s own, click on the lightbulbs
next to “Circle 1” and “Circle 2” in the browser menu.
12) Now circle 3 is the only sketch on your
screen

on the “30” to change
the diameter
14) Type 40 into the
dimension box to
change the diameter
to 40mm. Then press
the enter.
15) Press the “STOP
SKETCH” button.
16) This is how your
egg cup should look
now.
Now we do the same for circle 4:
17) Right click “Circle
4” then select “Edit
Sketch”
18) Your screen
should now look like
this.
Note: If the dimension isn’t already there
hit “D” on your keyboard, then select the
edge of your circle and then hit enter.

“44”, then
type 54 and
press enter
to change
the
diameter of
the circle
from 44mm
to 54mm
