Howdy. I am trying to place a tapped hole on a non-planar surface.....but I need the hole to be placed at an angle to this surface, not perpendicular to it. I can get a hole normal to this surface by just inserting a hole.....but I can't angle it or make it follow a path (axis or construction...
The part I'm trying to make is relatively simple. Imagine a recangular piece of SM with the length ~5' and the width ~1.5'. In order to create a debris pan, I need to break this diagonally (2x) by about 5deg. What you end up with is essentially a concave piece of SM. Each of the breaks has to...
Does anyone have any ideas on how to make a cross break in a sheetmetal part? I'm trying to make a simple crossbroken pan with flanges, but SW will not allow me to bend over bends, so to speak.
Thanks.
Howdy all. I have been trying to find a material database that I could download in order to save time creating a bunch of tool steels that aren't in the SolidWorks library as standard. Any ideas???
I had a number of these created, but it was destroyed when I upgraded to 2005.....my fault for...
Does anyone know if there is a site where I can download material properties for Solidworks. The existing materials database does not have the tool/carbon steel information that I am looking for and I would like to save time on defining all new materials. Thanks.
