Removing threads from a previous modeled threaded hole

gandrade — Fri, 30 Jun 2017 18:32:26 GMT

I have created a part and placed four holes on said part. The part is a 12mm thick 25.4 mm diameter cylinder. On the top of the cylinder I have extruded four 3mm holes which go all the way through the part. On each of those four holes I placed M3-.5 threads which go all the way through the holes. NOW for my question. I want to remove the threads from the four holes. How do I remove them?

Any assistance you can provide is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Do you have the timeline at the bottom of the screen? If you do select the thread feature right click and delete. If you don't have history enabled the quickest way is just create a sketch on the end face draw circles for for new holes and use the sketch to extrude cut. If you still have the original sketch that created the hole you could use that. It you are still stuck export the file as an f3d and attach to this thread.

Edit. Just tested with history off and if this is how you're working you should have a thread feature in the browser, just select and delete.

Hi, thank you for the timely reply. I am new at Fusion 360 and need to get used to using the timeline as a tool to delete features.
