thread507-109087 The guide to bending steel that was linked in the post of the previous thread was long outdated, but Modern Steel Construction has a new free link to the specific article the post was referring to here.

ctopher, I'm continually amazed at the capabilities of Solidworks :) I think I just got in a rut of thinking I could only use the helix creator to make this thing. I forgot about the "twist along path" option.

Hello tippers, I'm trying to figure out a way to make a "coiled coil" in Solidworks, or basically a helix curve which axially follows another helical path (think light bulb filament) or any arbitrary path. It seems that Solidworks by itself can't do it (or prove me wrong!) but I figure there...

If it's not clear from the picture, the hole is through-all. I basically need attach tiles of this high temperature sheetrock-like material together with what is basically bailing wire. The wire tends to grind at the holes' edges, so I wanted to insert some piece like this in the holes. I...

The image didn't work for some reason. Here it is.

Every few months or so, I try to find a piece of hardware that looks like this (that will not function as a flanged sleeve bearing, usually found in plastic or bronze), but I can never find it (on McMaster or wherever). I need it to be steel and small (=~1/4" OD) and it just needs to function...

Hey all, I need advice on how to go about designing the sealing parts of a device that will consist of two chamber halves closing together and about a spout to seal vacuum tight. I am thinking something like a rubber gasket-like piece on each chamber half, but I'm sort of lost on how to put...
