I don't have any experience with spline shafts and can't find anything online to help identify this one. It's the input end of a heavy duty hammer drill. 12 tooth. 0.7975" major and 0.672" minor diameter.
Thanks...
Updraft - I re-read your first post before mine. I definately lack in taking advantage of using patterns to place fasteners. I'm slowly getting better at that.
GRF - Toolbox has been on my PC directly, a slow network drive, and another PC on the homegroup. None had any difference in performance.

I think I am following items 1-3 to the best our design allows. I will review my model regarding item 4. I know of a couple places I can fix this...
I am a new Solidworks user going on almost a year. We have been building an assembly which now has a couple thousand parts and almost 2000 fasteners (nuts/bolts/washers). We are at the point now where it takes 9-10 minutes to open our main assembly. That's understandable and bearable. The...
If you're just changing the LENGTH of a toolbox fastener, you can highlight the fasteners, then click COMPONENT PROPERTIES. There should be a list of configurations (lenghts) to choose from. Pick the new length and you're done. I don't remember if this is necessary or would happen, but if the...
*Clarification*
You CAN edit a line by clicking on it and viewing it's properties. You can type in the X-Y coordinates of it's endpoints but this is not the way you would want to start a new project.
No, in Draftsight, you cannot "edit" a line by retyping a length like you would in most 3D cad apps. As usual there are many ways of doing anything, but an important feature is the function keys, particularly F8. F8 restricts lines to vertical and horizontal lines. For what you want to do, I...
I take that back. If I want to copy from one file to another, it works once. If I want to copy something else from another file, I need to shut down DS and reopen everything, then copy the new item. Otherwise it will copy old stuff - it won't let me copy something new.
Has anybody come across a problem copying and pasting in Draftsight? If I copy some linework, it seems to paste something I had copied earlier and not the last thing I copied. If I switch to another draftsight file, it will then paste something else I had previously copied in that file (I really...

I recently had problems adding a standard fastener that didn't exist in the Toolbox. After a lot of research from technical support we discovered that when adding or modifying, you need to ensure you have the right decimal places in each of the configurations' numbers. i.e. a "1" is different...
I left aviation and am starting a new career in heavy machinery and need to learn about bearings. For starters I am designing a bearing housing for a self-centering bearing (PEER FH205-16) and need to figure out the tolerances needed for a proper fit. I know this is a pretty generic question -...
I am trying to start a Hole Series in an assembly and unable to select existing holes that were created using Hole Wizard using a 3d sketch (holes are on different different planes on one part). Hole series is not recognizing these holes.
Is Hole Series not able to use existing holes that...
I would suggest making a shaft with the smaller diameter section growing to a larger section that matches the curve then cutting the larger sections four flats with a single pocket.
It's been a few weeks since the last post on this discussion but let me correct something (and give my opinion at the same time).
I think Dazza was the closest to explaining the intracacy here but I need to correct him/her. ISO2768 has a sliding tolerance based on the size of the dimension...
I'm trying to select a fastener to be used to attach a removable hardwood molding for an aircraft cabin cabinet. The screws are partially screwed into the composite panel inserts such that the screws can slide into keyhole slots but the molding will remain tight to the cabinet. Would...
