Thanks for that!!! its working ok now. I was in a part modelling but it didn't grey out. Working now though, probably Solidworks doing something funny. Thanks again.
I was wondering if it is possible to cut a modelled part out of another solid modelled part.
Example:
A circle saved as a part and then in a new part model say a box. Then subtract the circle from the box. I know this is a simple example and their is an easy way of modelling this, but say it...
I think I have sort of done that, great thanks for your help. Really greatful its hard to find good help like this. I will give it a go and see how it turns out thanks again for your help.....
Thanks for your help but the wrap tool only works on cylinders and not on spheres. Trouble is that I have 2006 version of Solidworks so the over solution I cannot try. Any other suggestions. I think that the wrap tool can only be used on surfaces that have one degree of curvature.
Any further...
Thank you for your reply. The ribs/grip are on the outer edge of the sphere not inner. I have a rough drawing but I'm not sure how to post an image on this forum.
I'm not sure really how the revolve would work???
I have tried to post the image here...
Basically I need to put a finger pad or grip on the side a sphere. The ridges that extrude from the sphere are used to grip the part. If anyone can help please help me.
