Trying to make saw blade, having trouble drafting the tooth pattern

[johnevans7]

Trying to draft this saw blade part but can't figure out how to draw the last angle.  Any help would be appreciated.

Are you still working on this?

I always look to the manufacturing process used to create the feature out on the shop floor.

I am assuming a revolving end mill or chamfer cutter at an angle - plunged into the part and then translated out the slot.  Revolve and Sweep of the cutter (we can often cheat in CAD with only a Sweep).

Do you have a picture of your process setup?

You can back up a step in the Timeline prior to Pattern.

Add the necessary feature(s) and then edit the Pattern to include the added feature(s).

Post back if you haven't figured it out.

BTW - if you are running Fusion on a Windows OS you can use the Windows commands Shift Win S (screencapture) and Ctrl v (Paste) to include images in your posts.

Could you upload that file so I can see how you did that?  I'm having trouble duplicating it.

Sorry double post.

Yes still working on it when I can.  Having trouble with the angles.  

My first thought was to make a endmill on that angle and plunge it in then pulling it around to achieve to proper cut, but I could always use a ball nose to make this too just depends on time.
