Cam mate, maybe

Cam mate, maybe

Cam mate, maybe

(OP)
I have a post (see file) that has mirrored curved cuts. Bearings travel in said cuts. I'm having trouble getting the bearings to mate to, and travel along, the cuts. I've tried using a 3D sketch to mate the parts with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

RE: Cam mate, maybe

That link takes me to the upload site, not the download.

I think MooLoad is having a problem. I had the same thing yesterday.

cheers

RE: Cam mate, maybe

I have everything exept the bearings, they were not in the download.

If you go to the bottom of the page and select server1 or server2 you can download the zip file.

I got the answer I needed. I neglected to use the 'Fit Spline' command when I created my 3D sketch. All is well now.
