Parametric Cycloidal Drive Featurescript
Hello, I've made a parameterized cycloidal drive generation script that I've found very useful, and I thought I'd share it in case anyone else was interested. I'd love any feedback 🙂 https://cad.onshape.com/documents/8b3df8cee04d69a41c0ee558/w/896df62751b78bc0bd9e2148/e/6a0d9aecc7ada0f635581c7a

Custom Mate Connectors not coming over to assembly
Hey folks - I know this question has been asked in other forms, but none of the solutions helped and this is actually in the classroom tutorial from Onshape. I'm doing the "bricks/lego" project and when we reach assembly, the mates created in the part studio (which are not inferable from the geometry) don't carry over.…
