    Thank-you😀 You made a great video. Most are silent or have noise pollution in the background and we learn ZERO from them. I'm learning so much from these videos and thanks to everyone who makes them and the ones who actually talk to explain what is going on. This program is helping my shop work speed up. I don't have to keep measuring as I build because it's all on the drawing.

      I did hear the faint sound of a 3D printer in the background but, then again, I've grown to like that sound since I bought my own ! :)

    At sections, put 100. On most 3D printers it matches with the way the motors run and gives a much smoother finish than any number under 100 to 90 and any number above 100 to 110 (anything above that is unnecessary in any circles you'll make the slicer won't perform any better on any machine that's not equipped with state of the art motors and software).

    This is a very good tutorial - Thanks for posting it!
    well explained by showing and naming the SketchUp tools you´ve used. This helix scaling thing is amazing!

      :-) yes it was!
      the reduction to the necessary content is what makes a good tutorial - and fortunately the avoidance of annoying background music.
      Nothing to improve!
      PS: I'll rebuild your screw as an exercise!

    Thank you ! I found a easier way for thread. After scaling screw you can easily reverse with subtract command which in solid tolls.

      At least here: www.cad-addict.com/2009/07/sketchup-plugins-how-to-draw-helix-or.html I cannot find it now on Sketchucation.com web error (drawhelix14 newer). Other alternative for any screw profile is: The Spirix Plug-in. ua-cam.com/video/_0ycC4MZCnY/v-deo.html Also I cannot connect now to the rhin.crai.archi.fr/rld/plugin_details.php?id=784 for the plug-in... I wonder why? Down for some reason?

    Thanks for the tutorial. My helix is not intersecting with the cylinder. When I scale the helix, it just passes through the cylinder. sides of both are set to 100. I stretch/size to "end point in group". anything I could be missing?

    • @CinemaTablet
      @CinemaTablet  7 років тому

      Side count on cylinder and helix have to be same. Perhaps you have set the radius 100, not the side count? If you are working on very small scale, strange things can happen sometimes. Then you have to do the scale up for a moment. Have you tested first with basic circle 24 sections with helix 24 sections?

    Hi! Great tutorial, many thanks. But why do you do "copy and paste in place"?

    • @CinemaTablet
      @CinemaTablet  3 роки тому +1

      With paste in place the object gets copied to exactly correct (same) place I want to. If I do Ctrl +V (just copy) the copy is grabbed outside the object and I feel clumsy to put it to the correct place.

    I'm so frustrated for I can't create this screw in the explained way.
    That's what I'm doing: I create the first helix (24 parts), make a group, copy it in place, rotate it (in my case by 50 deg), explode all and re-group it again, copy this second group in place again, rotate it for 180 deg. Then I create the circle (24 parts and same radius as the helix) and extrude this circle, next I'm exploding the first helix-group and then exploding the second helix-group without doing anything other than pressing the "S"-Key for scale. I see, that both lines from the second exploded helix-group are highlighted. If I try to scale now, only one of the spirals from this both is scaled. The other turns to black and keeps standing outside of my "screw". I watched this video for times and times but I can't figure out, where my mistake is. The only difference in my work is, that I don't use the "Helix-Addon" but I create the helix "by hand" as it is shown in another tutorial (NOT in the way to create a curve and lift it up and stick it together with a reverse copy).
    Is anybody here who can help me? Sorry for my english is not so good - its quite 50 years ago as I learned in school ;-)

    • @CinemaTablet
      @CinemaTablet  6 років тому

      Hi! 50 degrees does not fit with 24 part helix. Try first 24 & 45 degrees and see. Then probably you can find some other dimensions like 24 parts with 60 degrees.

    • @CinemaTablet
      @CinemaTablet  6 років тому

      ...and if you make a 72 sides helix with a 72 sides or parts circle, you can make your 50 degrees turn.

    • @urceel8350
      @urceel8350 6 років тому

      It works! Thank you so much - you saved my day. I'd not recognized, that there's a relation between the count of parts of the circle/helix an the rotation angle.

      Don't let your mind fool you that something is painful. Perhaps these days there is some plugins to make things faster. Or download parts, stls already done and edit them. Anyway this workflow teaches some art, movements. which might help with some other ideas.

      There isn't an easier way! Lol. :)
      It still took me hours, I have a thread, but can't add a shank to it for some reason, just won't create a surface to extrude, only a circle, I don't know why....
      So bloody frustrating....
      Thanks for your help though. :)

      @@shaneclee5512 I'm not sure what is your problem, but doing it in a small scale can make problems in sketchup. Make 100 times bigger than original and scale it down in some other software. Or perhaps you did not explode helix groups?

      Hi! Important notice 2020!: Helix14.rbz has disappeared from the web! But you can use : sketchucation.com/plugin/1379-helix_along_curve
      You can get it when you FREE! subscribe to sketchucation.com. Draw a line along blue axis, select it and draw, helix along curve. There is no pitch, so you have calculate like 150mm (line) / 5 laps = pitch 30mm. And sections per lap 96 in this case.
