I need to make a "pattern" or a groove on a side of a cylinder that makes the cylinder turn 1/4 every time a small part moves inside the groove.
Nerf guns use similar setups but the most noticeable is in a certain revolver... I had to look it up on Forgotten Weapons just to find it
If i extrude a round "rod/cylinder" and want that groove in it, how do i do it?
Would be super-awasum if someone drew a SW2015 compatible "sample" that i could use to modify into my part.
Apologies. There might be a language barrier here also...
Here is one quick way I can think of:
1. Create a sketch with the desired profile.
2. Now boss extrude using offset from surface and desired height. You may have to play with the settings
3. Finally circular pattern
Now you need to workout on sketch dimension to get the desired results.
