Hi.

First time poster here.
Im looking to make a 180deg bent rod and get the bend radius and rod length in drafting later.
It would also be nice if I could modify it later in Expressions.
I do have access to the Routing Mechanical add-on but Im lost as to how to do this.
Is there a tutorial or example .prt file anywhere to be found?

Specifically, Im trying to make this:
Rod diameter: Ø25mm
Bend radius: R635mm


Thanks in advance for any help.

What version of NX are you using? Also, you mention Routing, but are you actually creating a Routed system or just contemplating using it since it can report length data?
