Undercuts for axles

romy

Hi.
I was wondering if there was a feature or some application for creating undercuts on axles. Or does one need to draw them manually in sketches?
Cheers

Manually I guess (I’m no axle expert so don’t know what the undercut looks like). You can always build your own custom feature if you do it a lot.

Hi Neil
Thanks for your answer.
I was thinking about something like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undercut_(manufacturing)#/media/File:Undercut_turning.png

Yes - whether it is a groove or undercut you would manually sketch and revolve/remove to create the feature.
