I'm battling to find anything helpful on the problem I'm trying to solve.
I want to creat teeth/grooves around a hole to lock a swivel bracket into place when it's fixing nut is tighthened. Best to describe is by an example photo of a part that I'm trying to customized.
There are 18 teeth in total (20° angle between teeth) and the depth is 0.8 mm.
This is the part where I want to add the teeth:
Any help/comments welcome.

You could create two 20° wedges and loft between them.
Thanks Matt, I just couldn't warp my head around this problem. Sorted!
Could you by chance walk me through how you are doing this, I need the same thing and have been stuck for multiple hours now, maybe even a short video? lol
You are responding to an old post, but here's some hints.
Create some sketch geometry to set angles based on number of teeth. Note formula.
