vgroove on a curved surface
vgroove on a curved surface
(OP)
One other question, if anyone can help.
I am making a round part that is tapered. I need to make
8 v grooves along the tapered surface about 3/8 inch deep. The vgrooves are along the axial axis. Thanks in advance.

One good way to learn SolidWorks, create a test parts and assemblies and drawings. Go thru each one using all icons to see what they do....in addition to the tutorials CBL suggested above.

You need to create a plane perpendicular to the tapered edge, sketch the v-groove onto that plane, then do a Cut-extrude.
