Hello Fusion-Team,

i want to drill a threaded, intersecting hole. But there seems to be a bug and it just wont work. Any idea?

This is going to be a cooling channel for an injection mold.

I guess you only need to thread the start of the hole? You could do it in 2 features, first a hole with a counterbore, say Ø10x15mm counterbore and Ø9.0mm hole then use the thread tool to add the thread to just the counterbore.

I don't know why the compute fails when the holes cross through each other exactly. But I know it works if you offset them from each other at least slightly. In the picture below, you will see that I've offset the third hole 1mm differently that the other two, and it works fine.
