Problem Creating a Wave Washer
(OP)
I'm trying to create a wave washer (wave spring) similar to the attached GIF.
It's not too difficult to create the circular path with 4 "hills" and "valleys", but when I try to sweep a rectangular cross section around the path, it banks the shape so it's not parallel at the top of the peaks and bottom of the valleys.
Is there a way to do keep the cross section parallel?

But I'm required to work in NX4. I was able to access a coworker's NX5 station to view the file. Now I'll try to duplicate it in NX4.
