Today I will share a really cool method for designing overmold. I had been using a pretty intense method of offseting surfaces in and out and knitting them together with a bridging surface (most likely a trimmed surface extrude) This method is a little more stable because it relies on more Solid features, which tend to have less problems with relationships.
So this is your generic main body
Extrude the profile of your overmold without merging the feature
Offset the orange surfaces out by 0.5mm (It is hard to see it here)

Thanks a lot
