I was wondering if anyone here had a Spread Sheet for Open Office that will calculate Hole Diameters for Odd Size Threads. I would also like to get Alibre to use this function in the Hole Feature. That is if this is possible.
Unfortunately I have no experience with Spread sheets of any kind, let alone Alibre's open API.
Totally clueless over here but this could be presented to the Alibre Development Team to benefit everyone.
Here is the Formula I use to calculate Odd Ball Threads.
1.299 / the thread pitch = A
A * the percentage of thread desired = B
Major Diameter - B = the hole diameter needed
Actual Example
5/8-27
1.299 / 27 = .0481
.0481 * 70% = .03367
.625 - .03367 = .5913
Is this possible??
