Hi, I need to put some mechanical rope on my design and I was wondering if there is anyway of doing this? I found out how to do wire, but this is always really thin and not torte.

Cheers,

Ed

Ed,

I don't know what your design calls for but have a look
at Swept Protrusion it might be the tool to be used for
this.

Looks promising, I'll give it a go anyway, Cheers
 
Ed,

A question. By mechanical rope do you mean link chain or conveyor chains?

I don't think I mean chains. I mean like a bike brake cable, but with a larger diameter. I might nearly have got it, its just getting the right angles to make it assemble which is the prob.

Cheers,

Ed.
