I have a series of circles which are 6mm apart. I then have a set of lines that branch out from the center to the outside circle. How do I make a second set of lines to keep them evenly 6mm apart from exterior to interior circle? If I copy them and rotate, they taper to the center, I need them to be even.
Example:
This is what happens if copied/rotated:
as you can see, they taper, I need them evenly spaced. How do I do this?
Please attach your model from the first screen capture. If you do not know how to attach your Fusion 360 model follow these easy steps. Open the model in Fusion 360, select the File menu, then Export and save as a F3D or F3Z file to your hard drive. Then use the Attachments section, of a forum post, to attach it.

Are the first set of lines supposed to be evenly spaced as they are not now? If so, are the second set suppose to bisect the first set? If they are not even, you did not dimension them so how do we know the spacing?

I create a quick drawing to show you the angle variance. Please let me know if this is correct or should they be even angles all the way around?

Here's an example of what I am talking about. Maybe this can clear it up. Basically the lines that go from the center to the outer circle, are evenly spaced (6mm) From Outer circle to Inner
I do not understand your question or your attempt to explain it so I will leave it up to someone else to try and help you. The statement " are evenly spaced (6mm) From Outer circle to Inner" makes absolutely no sense. Good luck.

the angles shouldn't matter much, they just need to be 6mm thick that I can extrude to make the inner structure. Here's a sample image. Here you can see there are circles and then lines that go through them to create a support structure
Is this what you want? The thickness can be varied using the timeline features is it is.

Change the current lines to construction lines. Offset these lines 3mm on each side. This will give you 6mm wide profiles.

Next time you post a question, post the picture of what you desire first, it will save a lot of confusion. Video is attached showing how I made the model, I hope it helps. By the way, you have a lot of yellow in your timeline, take care of these problems when they occur to make your models better.
