    @ Mike : Yeah ... i get what you mean :D seems easier to machine out. But for obsessive purposes, do you think you can take a look at where my CAD is wrong? :D

    how to model a 1/4" bsp external and internal thread for 3D Printing?

    Hi Dan, Thanks for the information at the FAQ. Hi Madmango, I've seen that video before. Question is I'm not sure what is the thread size being used and I can't relate. Based on the 1/4" BSP type I require, I'm stuck at where to pierce the profile. OR maybe I'm doing it wrong or is my profile...

    how to model a 1/4" bsp external and internal thread for 3D Printing?

    Hi Everyone, I would like to model a stand size BSPP 1/4" type part with internal and external threads that will work with standard 1/4" threads. I can't seem to find a way to cut the profile and feeling a little lost on the point where I pierce on to the helix. Could anyone help please...
