Hi, I made a 33-400 thread on a neck. This is for a plastic bottle. Now I need to make a thread runout at the start and finish. Can somebody help with this?

    Those are typically just a revolve of the thread profile. If you share a public document you might get more assistance.

    Here is my thread detail. I am using the specs for plastic bottles and cannot use the Onshape tool because they use different specs. I need a 5 mm or so runout to the start and finish.

    I'm guessing you're trying to post a link. When you add one, wait a few moments before hitting the post comment button, otherwise the system will not include it. There's some sort of background checking to avoid spam etc.
