Splined carburettor tool

[beastro]

Hi,

Does anybody of you have a model for a splined carburettor adjustment tool?

Thanks!

Can't you model one? A search on Google shows several different spline styles. If you know the spline style you need...

That is my intention, but I have been looking for the measurments and can't find them. The screw head is deeply embedded in the carburettor, so I cannot reach it to measure it. This is the part. Anyway, I keep on searching.

Use the picture you have, import it into an Alibre Drawing then trace a sketch around it. Copy that sketch and paste it into a model sketch to extrude and create your model. If you know the diameter of the adjustment screw head that will help you get the size correct by scaling the image before you trace it.

OK, I did find a mesh file. That should do it hopefully..

Good idea!! I did not think about doing it that way. I'll try it out.

Thanks!!

I used an automatic tracer to trace your image if it helps.
