circular pattern

I am trying to create a circular pattern of (embossed) text on a surface, with each instance displaying a different value in increasing order. A simple example would be a clock with hours values increasing around the dial. My final project will have much more than 12 values but the dial will serve here as an illustration…

Hi, I'm working on a school project where I need to model a bunch of tiny steps onto a nose cone. The finished product will basically be a nose cone with a bunch of concentric ridges (1000+). I have the nose cone modeled, but I'm having trouble creating the little ridges. I've tried using feature pattern, but it doesn't…

So I'm trying to make some plant pots that I can 3d print at home on my bambu, and I can't pin down why this loft isn't happy. the two sketches are the same, excpet that the top one is a little larger. Both are fully parameterized, created by usind a pattern that repeats 2 semicircles about the central point. Even if I…

I'm attempting to create a solid loft with a conical surface, starting from a recessed central hole and splaying out to a larger forward oval. I've tried lofting using the floor and rim of the cavity as the references, but I get the error message about closed loops. When I create a surface spanning both holes and loft from…

I have been having issues with circular patterns. I am trying to create a modular cylinder that uses a twist snap connection. I did some test prints with a different file that I was able to create the revolve 1 and revolve 2 and extrude 3 features and then circular pattern them 4 times across the full 360 degrees. However…

Hi everyone, I’m having trouble modeling teeth along the edge of a metal plate for my project. I sketched a circular pattern line (top of the tooth – bottom of the tooth - top of the tooth and so on), but every time I try to use the Chamfer function, the geometry overlaps with the adjacent part (as shown in the photos).…

DIALS FS I hope this will one day become as indispensable for the AMP industry as SpeakerPattern FS is for the speaker industry :) It’s a feature that lets you design all kinds of dials for clocks, tachometers, synthesizers, nanometers, amps, and more. From a designer’s point of view, it’s great to have a tool that lets…

I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong or if I’m just not understanding, but I’m trying to make a body tube for a model rocket and I’ve been stuck trying to do a simple circular pattern around the Z‑axis of my body tube (a cylinder). I’m new to Onshape, but I have experience with other CAD software, and for some reason…

I'm doing a sheet metal part and added holes but these holes don'y show up in the flat view, what can it be ?

I tried to do it but I still can't figure it out. Can someone help here?

For my first project with Onshape, I am trying to modify an object by adding text to it in a repeating circular manner. I understand that the text entity cannot be part of a circular pattern so this is not my issue. I want each text object to be different anyway (days of the week). To have the text correctly positioned…

hi pretty new to Onshape and cad it self by like that u Can design things and I get better all the time. my wife has this clock witb a nice pattern and really want a patten like that on a sphere also and maybe other things But sad to say after a few (lot) tryes its more than I Can at the moment 😔 Can anyone lead me the…

Vases | Part Studio 2 So I was following a tutorial on creating vases for 3d printing and the work flow is to create your base shape, revolve a cylinder around it, put a helix on the cylinder, use the helix and one of the cylinder's base lines to create a spiraling surface (looks like an Archimedes screw with zero…

I am building a 4 cylinder engine but i have this problem, when i try to connect the top of the piston to the guide sketch i made using slider mate the piston moves up and out of place making the piston not spin on the axis. It worked before but i accidently deleted that and now when I'm trying to redo it it wont work. i…

Hi all, I've created a half hemisphere with a wall thickness of 0.5mm and I'm trying to perforate it with 0.5mm holes all over. So far I have used a circular pattern to get a ring around the top, but I can't figure out how to propagate that pattern across the rest of the surface without recreating the approach I used for…

I'm trying to create a circular pattern here with the a move face feature, but the circular pattern always fails: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/233ece5bf67e5cfd0ff9829e/w/f4926fc63ae73655e27fb075/e/38e1cfc768a63f39d9d15e33 Doesn't give much of an error message, so not sure what the issue is; I've used circular pattern…
