    Create a groove consistent with a milling cutter

    Hi, I'm trying to model a groove on a curved surface that is to be made on a 5 axis. I only know how to sweep a 2d Sketch which when going around radii smaller than that sketch width causes a clash and cusp error. (see below) In real life this isn't a problem because we are just cutting away...

    Wrap a sketch onto a surface

    Hi, I'm looking to wrap a sketch onto a surface to so that it retains it's dimensional constraints. ie if I sketch 5 lines with 1mm spacing and project onto a curved surface it should retain 1mm spacing. Right now the project command is just doing the same as extruding the sketch through the...
