Menolik Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Any ideas why I can't sweep this circle using the helix as the path? Drawing2.dwg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxwellEdison Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 The circle is too large and would intersect itself (height is the problem, not radius). Use a smaller circle or increase the spacing between coils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menolik Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 oh thanks. I probably could have figured that one out so I wouldn't have to bother you guys, but I'm too lazy to do that I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxwellEdison Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I live for simple problems...they make me feel complex. Plus anytime I give a quick answer like that it means I've spent too long with the exact problem on my end and had it burned into my memory.
