Can't create thread, Just get an error and red thread outline

sean_parkinson

I've been struggling for about an hour, searching the internet and what not to see if anyone else was getting this issue, I was originally trying to create a thread for a Hydraulic cylinder, but I made screw just to make sure I could get the issue to appear again. I know its most likely because I'm just missing it, but I'm very new to onshape.
Thanks.

It's very hard to start debugging your issue without first seeing the document itself.

Sorry about that.  Hope you worked it out or share the document as public and you will get lots of folks helping out.

Are you sure you're cut triangle is intersecting the part you are cutting?
Did you make sure you selected a merge scope?
