Adding Threads to a sphere

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi,

 

I took a simple sphere and have shelled it then cut it in half. I would like to make one side of the sphere screw into the other. There are a couple of different methods to use and I was wondering what the best would be. Essentially a real life example would be the plastic easter eggs they hide candy in. Thread command does not work for this for some reason.

You need to create a counter bore on one half and a boss on the other with parallel side like the image below. I used a revolved sketch as it's easier to setup and edit.

No it's not PMI. All I've done is make the sketch visible then enabled show dimensions on the right click menu.

is there anyway you could add a screen cast of the entire process.  I'm missing the a few steps between making an arc sketch offsetting the line and adding the thread?
