Extrude - Cut

 

Do you need some examples.

 

There is probably already an iFeature. 

Let me see if I can whip up a video.

Certainly. Examples would be nice.

In the assembly environment, you can also go to the DESIGN tab and hit the KEY tool on the POWER TRANSMISSION panel.

Here is a video that shows several different keyway styles and techniques.

Turn on your sound.

For the last keyway I should have picked a different face than the end of the part, but I didn't want to bother to redo the video for something as simple as a keyway.  When all else fails, Extrude - Cut. Done!

 

I just realized that I forgot to demo iFeature.  Frankly, it would take me longer to do that than simply create the sketch and extrude.
