Hi all

 

Im very new to fusion 360, I'm trying to create som knurling on a part with the coil tool but for some reason when selecting the centre it always off centres itself, what am I doing wrong hear? Is there a way of editing the centre of the coil after the diameter has been set? Thanks.

Why did you use Offset and 4 arcs in Sketch2 rather than one circle?

Open the Attached file.

Edit Sketch1 and examine.

Double click and change the 10mm height to 246mm.

Finish sketch.
