Best way to construct a rex axel shaft from gobilda?

HI,

I was trying to construct a rex shaft from gobilda into our robots cad but realized it was a lil tricky.

Can you help me or show me a model of this? The measurements should be as shown on the gobilda website.

Thanks.

You'll have better luck getting help if you provide the info (text, pics, description of what specifically is hanging you up) rather than asking for people to go on a scavenger hunt. By asking in the way that you have you have limited your audience to those in the "know" and those that are curious and have plenty of time to research. Is this what you want to model?

Yes that is the correct model. I am sorry as this is my first time using onshape and i didn't exactly know how to describe it. I will shape my questions better in the future.

This should just be a simple extrude of a sketch and then adding a threaded hole in the end. Create a circle of the desired diameter, dimension it then create a hexagon with the desired flat to flat dim constrained to the center of the circle. Then extrude it. Add the hole to the end with the hole tool. Is there something more specifically your having trouble with?

aiza_nathersa

Yes the problem i was having is that since this is my first time i don't know how to create the extrude sketch and threaded hole and stuff if you cold maybe send me a video or step by step directions that would be helpful.

thanks.
