NPT Holes

lawrence_cercone

I do a lot of machine design that requires me to use NPT Threads to get cooling and heating elements into a design.  I have see a few post requesting the ability to call out NPT holes/threads.  Is there an expected date on getting this ability in OnShape?

Thanks,
Larry

@lawrence_cercone I generated a ticket for you on that improvement.  We can't give you a time line on this, but in general hole feature has a lot still needed to support what our customers want and need, and this is one the more common needs for it.

I recently  extended the port feature from Neil cooke with NPT ports, may be this will help you. If you look at  the feature script it is not difficult toe extend with your specific requirements.

tonvis,
Thank you, although I am too familiar with features I see how it was done and will try that.
