Parametric Circle with arced Slots.

Hello,

 

I am trying to make a parametric model for a circle with rounded slots.

I want a parameter for slots/ revolution and a parameter for 'rows of slots'. 

What I mean by that is, I want to have multiple concentric patterns of slots, essentially creating a 'grille' or a circle with slot rows down to the middle. I have attached the f3d file with how far I got. I can't figure out how to make the number of rows configurable.

Hi @william.almmfg ,

I just looked at your design and I don't think there could be a way to define RowsOfSlots and SlotsPerRevolution as parameters that could define the shape of sketch, since every row will have different dimensions, radius, spacing, etc.

The option is to develop a script or add-in with such parameters as inputs and then let the code "draw" the sketch accordingly.

 

Hope this help.

 

Best regards,

Jorge Jaramillo
