Hi, I am trying to cut a part that is notched along a helical path. Each notch is a fixed distance along the helix which is itself tapered. I have no idea where to start. Thanks in advance.
Have a look at this-I also uploaded this to the Binaries group in case it doesn't come across here. The two cut sketches (taper and notch) could be combined into one. Hope this helps.
Sorry, I don't have a scanner to draw it by hand, but if you could imagine cutting a slot say every .1" along the edge of the auger attached above by Steve. That is essentially what I'm trying to to do.
