Description

This macro creates a screw with or without thread, according to ISO standards.


screw_maker

Usage

Select the characteristics of the screw and click on the create button.
If you select a circle on a hole, or alternatively the inner surface of a circular hole and the circle at top of that hole at the same time, the screw will be placed into the hole with the create button. There is a message text, that will inform you, when the selected combination of properties is not available.

The creation of the thread takes some time. Be patient and have a look at the CPU-usage.

Code

The lastest version of the macro is to be found at ScrewMaker.FCMacro but the easiest way to install this macro is through the Addon Manager.
