I'm working on a small winch drum with a spiral groove to help guide the cable as it winds. It looks something like this:
I have a Tormach Slant PRO 15L lathe, which can do semi-coordinated moves between the spindle and tool, but I'm not sure if between Fusion and the lathe I can cut this part.
I modeled this as a revolved profile, then cut it with a coil. I'm flexible on the exact groove profile; maybe I can get a cutting insert with the right shape.
Any suggestions or advice on how I might accomplish this?
