*need help* springs

I am trying to create a standard extension spring with a hook on each end that I can use for a template to quickly create other springs by just editing the pitch and other dimensions,without getting the failures (the hooks usually fail because the ends of the springs move). I was wondering ifthere is away to use relationsto keep the spring from failing.

Hi Wersan,



I'ld suggest you to focus on the references instead of 'relation'



The failure is caused by the missing references (most of the time). So
u may need to create some construction features - datums before u model
the hook.



hopes this can help.

I noticed that this topic is started for a while...


hope yet no more help is needed, but anyway ... you'll find under this link a spring with a hook, try to see how is made.

the hook is made with the intersection oftwo or threedatum curves.
