Good morning, would you mind sharing your cad.

I'd like to see if I can help.

Check out the screencast, is this what you are after?

If it's not making the rad:

Be sure your solid is water-tight

Or, it could be that the rad you desire is too large to be placed along that edge without running out past the edge of the outer cylinder.

@a1moldmaker 

Good morning,

I've only just begun playing around with macros in Powershape.

We do a lot of repetitive tasks with components so we are working on trying to "automate" as much as possible.

Maybe it's me, but it seems that macro programming in Powermill is much easier!

Anyway, I was curious as to what you would want your macro to do in this case?

For example, would you want the macro to ask the user to select the edges, and type in the size radius required, then apply the fillets?

Have you gotten any further with your macro?
