Hey all,
I'm still fairly new to Inventor and wanted to make some custom threads to 3d print. I know there is the coolOrange add-in, but I can't seem to get it to work either, plus I want to learn how to do it the manual way with the coil tool.
My issue is that once I finish the sketch of the bolt and revolve it, the coil feature won't let me select my cutting tool. The edges of the triangle profile are horizontally constrained and its left corner is constrained to the bolt's face.
I can't see why it won't let me select it. I've attached screenshots below. As you can see, the triangle should light up green to be selected as the rectangle does, but it doesn't!
Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance!
