how do I add lettering on curves? I am making a plastic bottle and need to add gradations on the outside.

Thanks

I just started a new job that is mostly blow molded bottles. Most of my experience is inj. molding so I need to study more for this position and Wrap will be one of those new things.

I also need to learn how to put a thread on a bottle as well.

RE: lettering on curves

Try to persuade your employer to send you for SW training, or to purchase the i.get.it or SolidProfessor tutorials. Either one is money well spent.

Also working through the SW Online Tutorials should help.

You will need the Sweep function for the thread creation.
Check out the Types of Threads example at http://www.scottjbaugh.com/Design_Portfolio/SW%20Models.htm

I have taken all of the training but quite a while ago. I've even gone to SW World but I haven't had to use many of the techniques.
