Assembly tap - cosmetic threads through all parts?
Assembly tap - cosmetic threads through all parts?
(OP)
I'm trying to place an assembly-level tap through 2 mated plates, but cannot get the cosmetic threads to go beyond the 1st plate (the tap drill does go through both plates). I've tried Thru all, Blind, Up To Surface. I've tried to manually edit the cosmetic thread length. Has anyone successfully done this?
Thanks,
Mike

I do not answer for you regarding cosmetic thread. But if two plates were welded together, it should be a multiple-body part not an assembly. If you do this, then you should have no problem.
