Thank you Harold. Your video example is exactly what I want to do. Everything you did on the video I can do in 2018. In fact, that was maybe going to be my next attempt. I was just hoping there was a better way rather than going the boolean route. I got it mostly done using the helical cut, but...

Been away from Alibre for a while and I'm rusty (and older!) I've been trying to figure out how to model two rotated slots 180 degrees apart through a piece of tubing. The ends of the slots have to be rounded as if the slots were cut with an end mill. (cuz they will be) They have to line up so a...

For me, it continues.........
