Example: Creating a Basic Draft
This example shows creating a basic Draft feature to add a draft angle of 10° to all sides of the part shown in the following illustration.
1. Click > 
Draft.
Draft.2. Select any side surface. Because all the side surfaces are tangent to each other, the draft automatically extends to all the surfaces around the part.
3. Click the 
Draft hinges collector on the Draft tab and select the top plane as the draft hinge. The system also automatically uses the plane to determine the pull direction, and displays the preview geometry, as shown in the next illustration.

5. The draft removes material from the part surfaces. To flip the draft angle, click 
Reverse angle to the right of the box to add or remove material. The draft now adds material, as shown in the next illustration.
