Tool for Threadmilling? What do you use now?

[Anonymous]

Hi-

I don't see the form tool (or whatever it was called to create a tool from sketch geometry and import it) used to create thread mill tools.  What tool do you use now for a thread milling operation?  

Thanks

I used Dovetails when the form-tools didn't work correctly in HSMWorks.

You only get half the simulation but at least it's something.

Or use a chamfer tool with a smaller shaft diameter comes close to the single tip thread cutters.
