A Rolling Offset Joint creates two miter joints to offset a pipe by a specified amount.
The two end pipes run parallel.
Two templates are generated, one for the middle 'offset' section and one that can be used for both end pipes.
Parameter Constraints:
Joint Name: name of this joint which is unique to this project or currently opened joints
Pipe OD: (Outside Diameter) must be a positive number
Pipe Wall: (Wall Thickness) must be a positive number, less than half Pipe OD
Run: length of rolling offset
Set: height of rolling offset
Roll: width of rolling offset
Comments:
Additional output fields labeled Offset and Miter are provided for the user's convenience.
Offset is the calculated distance between the two parallel end pipes, measured perpendicular to the pipes. sqrt(set^2 + roll^2)
Miter is the angle to cut the ends of the pipe to create this joint.
