That is a cool work around Ken226. Thanks for the lesson. Karl

This forum has been such a wonderful resource for me that it seem I owe you all a link to view my project. It is a 1939 John Deere B engine. I plan to build a miniature model of it. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1w7CMk1BY2xDRNGK5h3wf9hCKFxPjp25J/view?usp=sharing

Is it possible to have multiple sub assemblies "made flexable" in a single assembly? I have this and when I make one sub-assembly "make flexable" then the other one that was flexable now no longer allows movement. Is there a rule that you can only have one sub assembly "made flexable" at a...

Very Cool, Miles. Did you use the scripts?

.Adam is the least expensive version of Alibre

Oh' I just loaded the file in Alibre and it works. Wow what impressive design! Segmented and all. Now it just needs to recoil when pressure is released. Still one impressive design. I have I have to have a closer look.

Thanks, Stephen, for the VLC recommendation. I downloaded it and installed it. I've had it on other systems I've owned and have been happy with it. I am not clear on who built the spring in the video, or on what system. Is it adaptable to Alibre in any way? Karl

Wow That is Georgius!! Thanks for resending in.mp4,

I think it is not available with Adam, but is with Design and up.

Thanks Francesco, but I really wanted to make an animated model of an engine with opening and closing valves as I turned the flywheel.

Is there any way to model spring behavior in an assembly?

If you model a coil spring, will it behave like a spring in an assembly in design? Compressing and returning to normal state after pressure is released? Thanks Karl

In doing a little research I get the idea that is possible to get one component to continuously rotate. But I'm getting conflicting ideas of whether not I have this feature in Design or do I need to have Expert to get it. It looks like it has some way to set a calculation for the number of...

It Works!!! That is soooo cool David. Thanks! Karl
