Re: How to make a straight side on my piston ?
you can make the cylinder head first then do an extrusion for the area in the 4th picture and then use extrude cut to remove the material. I am sure there are lots of ways to do this. This is just one idea.

Re: How to make a straight side on my piston ?
Thank you very much for the sample and the explanation.Is the sample limited to solidworks 2014 ? I can't open it with the 2013 edition and it says "future version"
So you make a cylinder of the height of the piston and just cut the bottom ?
Also I guess you make a filled cylinder, so when you "empty" the inside, how do you do that you don't cut the inside parts that you can see on the fourth picture ?(Sorry for my english, it is not my first language)

Yes, make it a filled cylinder and sculpt and cut it to the shape you want and then you can use a shell or other features to hollow it out.
