Outside diameter threads???

OK so I have found the hole wizzard that puts threads on the insides of things but how do you put threads on the outsides of things?


I have an M30 hole but cant find anyway to put a M30 thread on the outside of a pipe I want to put into that hole.


Thanks Nic
 
Sorry Nic,


No real way that I know of in putting them on at this point in time. You can however, use a split line and then add cosmetic thread texture to that thread area, or using a helical sweep cut, create actual sweeping threads.





good luck...
