Greetings all;
I am determined to create the adapter to bolt or clamp to the worm
bearing boss stick out of this BS-1 in hope that I will eventually get
that encoded motor I ordered. So I went out and took some measurements.
The diameter of where it will clamp to is 28mm.
The diameter of the worm shaft sticking out of that is 19mm.
And this 19mm shaft is double flatted, 10mm across the flats.
Now, where do I find a freecad tut that will allow me to create a ring
that will clamp or grub screw to the 28mm piece, and flare out to about
50mm diameter to mount this worm drive and motor when it arrives and I
can take some measurements? I have managed to create a starter cylinder
but haven't found where to set its length or or diameter. Rank, brand
new bee here IOW. And its solid rod, not a ring, so is probably a throw
away at this point.
The youtube videos are confusing because they are outdated. These 2 seems
to redefine the phrase "moveing target".
Since I've installed the AppImages of both freecad and cura, 2 weeks ago,
both have been updated several times, and I have added shortname links
to the AppImages, in general making them no-brainers to run. But I do
have to fix the ln's when they update.
not sure if this'll help or not
in the top row there is a drop down, select "part"
in the second row click on the cylinder
in the left top panel select the word "cylinder"
in the left lower panel adjust the properties
in the second row click on the cylinder again
adjust the diameter of the second cylinder to be smaller than the first cylinder
in the left top panel select the word "cylinder"
in the left top panel hold the ctrl key and select the word "cylinder001"
in the third row of the icons click on the third one, tool tip "Make a cut of two
shapes"
now you have a tube
