How do I draw an arc?

How To Design
1

Spent alot of time on this yesterday and have not figured it out yet.

I need to make a jig for a huge radius (9’), So I do draw a 9’ radius circle and have a portion of it on my workspace. I am trying to cut out the section that is on the workspace then edit it from there. Have tried drawing lines perpendicular to the arc and trimming the vector, no good. Fusion 360 makes this pretty simple but Im loosing my access to it. Downloaded the 14 day free trial of carbide create pro hoping that would make it simple, nope.

Any ideas?

Thanks John

The free, personal use version?

Draw a circle

Draw a rectangle and size/position it so that it defines the arc you want

Select both and use the Trim Vectors tool to remove all but the arc you want

If that doesn’t work, let us know where you want the arc to begin/end (post the file?) and we’ll walk through it w/ you.
