Me Again with Inner (ID) Threading and Ideas! (SOLVED)

Hello,

Slow to the game here once more (even though I mentioned something a while back in another post)...

Okay. So, if the 0.394" hole needs to be threaded internally, how would I go about this idea?

It should not be beyond me so far but it is beyond me. Should I measure from the center most point to a center point in one of the 0.394" holes that need to be threaded?

Or is there something simpler I should try first beforehand? When I angle the view in Sketch Mode and then bring it back into Main Use Window after making a quadrilateral in Sketch Mode, I seem to have no reference staying in the form for using Helical Cuts.

I can try to make a singular build with a cut out in it of a circular figure and then bring that in (I guess)...

Seth

P.S. Just because I can move one way and create something in the Sketch Mode, does not mean I cannot move back to the previous view! (SOLVED). Sorry for berating this issue over and over...

If you mean there is no axis to select for the helical cut then you can select the face of the hole and it will act as the axis.

Thank you for "trying" to make me understand. I quoted trying to let you know I do not understand. I clicked the hole face circular line to do what you describe and nothing happened.

I will keep trying.

P.S. I did chamfer the center hole to test ideas so I could then make a quadrilateral for usage to make threads. This worked partially without further investigation and I will keep trying it.
