shaft thread.

shaft thread.

shaft thread.

(OP)
im trying to add a 10 left hand thread to a shaft for use in shaft coupling design but i cant seem to get solidworks to add a thread to the shaft. anyone know how?

RE: shaft thread.

(OP)
ok. i figured that one out. i guess the poeple who put the ui together neglected to include the "cosmetic thread" button in the tool bar. so i guess a better question would be can i add that button into the ui?

RE: shaft thread.

(OP)
ok. i guess you can disregard all of this since i've figured out how to customize the ui.

RE: shaft thread.

I'm glad we could help! cheers
