blenderbros..
Im trying to figure this one out,
I want to model angled steel piece, with exact parameters, like in the photo. It have to be 2meters long, 2mm thick and 25x25 lenght of angled side. How can I do it in a way that I will be able to change dimensions later?
for example, if I want to be 3meters long and 35x35mm?
I was thinking about using curves to make lenght line of 2m, then extruding it with "L" profile that I can set dimensions of, then use some kind of thickness modifier that can be changed. And only then in the end convert a copy to poly. Is something like this even possible in blender?

Use SolidWorks or Abaqus

Parametric modeling isn't currently possible in blender.
You want CAD software.

Autochads too busy making bank to even come to this place and browse for more than 5 minutes

I almost got it blenderbros..
I made line, starting orgin to 3d cursor, then created empty object that I rotated 90 degree and used as object offset in array of that line, it gave me "L" shape, which I later extruded and beveled in object properties. So now I can control lenght and thickness. Problem is that it doesnt look very nice as its not fused, and when I change lenght of one of line making "L" shape with array, the other line stay the same lenght.. How can I link those lenghts? and can something be done about this ugly joint?

How does one make bank with drafting skills, freelancing projects? I'm a savant with CAD/CAM software but haven't been able to find any gigs doing it professionally that aren't architectural or civil. I left college with like two courses remaining for an AS in "Engineering Graphics & Design Technology", would it be worth it to finish that?

Use milkshape 3d for perfect results

>blender fags unironically believe it is normal for a modeling software to not be able to do this
complete overkill. just switch to 3ds max where you can just type in different values later thanks to the modifier-based system.

Geometry nodes and a solidify modifier?

It's a bit baffling to me that it took this long for someone to suggest this.
Honestly should have been the first post, but instead we had a bunch of retards arguing about programs they obviously don't know how to use.
