NX3 Helicoid radius

NX3 Helicoid radius

(OP)
How can I draw an helicoid convex radius of 150 mm in a face of 43x9 of block of 43x9x45. And helicoid concave radius of 120 mm?

Hope you can help me!!

RE: NX3 Helicoid radius

You could help me out by explaining what a helicoid radius is.

Good old Google gave me this: http://www.answers.com/topic/helicoid
however, I am still unclear on what the convex radius and concave radius is.

Is the above link on the right track?

RE: NX3 Helicoid radius

Yeah...the radii are throwing me off too.  The helicoid can be done with 2 helixes and a cross section but I don't get where the radii come in?

RE: NX3 Helicoid radius

How do you helicoid the face of a block anyways?....lol
