I am trying to create a J-Slot on a cylinder part and I amhaving some trouble
The way that I am trying to create this is by using a Helix for apath and then using a square profile for the sweep cut.
The problem is that I am trying to make the cut like manufacturingwould do with an endmill.
A square profile cut sweep just isn't looking right because of someof the complex curves I have to make. Obviously I can clean up thesquared ends with another circle extrusion to simulate an endmilldiameter but it becomes a problem when the curve becomes a littlemore complex.
Is there are way to take a part/extrusion (shaped like ancylinder/endmill) and have it subtract along a path?
Or is there a completely different way to go about something likethis.
I hope I have explained this okay.
I appreciate any help.SolidworksParts And Features
