Description
The Fasteners_ChamferHole command chamfers holes for countersunk screws.
Usage
- Select a part with circular holes.
- For the automatic sizing of the command to work the holes must have the correct diameter. For example an M5 screw requires a 5mm pass hole or a 4.2mm tap hole. The Fasteners ScrewCalculator command can be used to determine the tap hole diameter.
- There are several ways to invoke the command:
- Press the Fasteners ChamferHole button.
- Select the Fasteners → Make countersunk option from the menu.
- The Chamfer holes for countersunk screws task panel opens.
- The Edges to chamfer list shows all circular edges of the selected part.
- Select the edges you want to chamfer by doing one of the following:
- Click individual circular edges or faces with circular edges in the 3D view:
- There is no need to hold down the Ctrl key.
- Each selected edge is checked in the Edges to chamfer list.
- The screw diameter for each is detected automatically.
- Edges cannot be deselected in the 3D view.
- Select or deselect edges in the Edges to chamfer list:
- In this case the screw diameter is not detected automatically.
- Click individual circular edges or faces with circular edges in the 3D view:
- Optionally change the screw diameter of an individual edge in the Edges to chamfer list by double clicking its Diameter field and selecting a new value from the dropdown list that appears.
- Optionally change the screw diameter of all selected edges by selecting a new value from the Diameter dropdown list below the Edges to chamfer list.
- Optionally specify a Screw type.
- Press the OK button.
- For each selected edge a chamfered recess is created.
