Any tricks for creating cosmetic thread on thread-forming screw?
Any tricks for creating cosmetic thread on thread-forming screw?
(OP)
I'm trying to add cosmetic threads to a thread forming screw, but I've only been able to have them show up on the leading taper. Anybody know a way to have it depicted for the length of the screw?
Thanks!
Tim

You might be able to "cheat" and create a surface at the minor dia of the threaded portion, then change the line formats in the drawing views.
