Message-ID: I'm trying to construct a 3D model of an M36x2 thread. For the curious, that's the thread used by the TM Warthog and F-16 stick grip assemblies. In order to correctly build the model that I can then in turn print, I need to know how big the thread needs to be and what the diameter is of the surface I'm either cutting thread into or attaching it to. >From what I've read, metric threads have a 60 degree angle to them. The formula I found (http://www.metrication.com/engineering/threads.htm) seems to say that the total height of the thread is 0.866 * P where P is the pitch of the thread (2mm in this case). So theoretically, my thread depth/height would be 1.732mm. Correct? When I measure the threaded base of my Warthog, I get a diameter of 35.82 or so. Pretty close to the 36mm I'd expect when you account for the designed-in flattening of the thread apex. So in order to create external threads, should I start with a "post" with a diameter of 34.268 and then add the threads to that? For internal threads, would it be a hole 36mm and then cut the thread into it using a 60 degree triangle, 1.732mm tall?

Message-ID: <2FB39A1077E2CC48BD7ECF1A3C363FEBE915CD@PS-CH1.pacsim.local> Does anyone know if you can buy something which plugs in to a micro SD slot (i.e. in a Gopro camera) and runs to a remote card slot. What I want to do is be able to have easy access to the SD card from the Gopro without having to actually interact with the camera. (I don't what the gorillas who are operating it to move the thing around while they are trying to rip the card out of the side of the camera....) My thought was a remotely mounted card slot thing, which I could screw to the wall for them to scratch at with their pudgy wee fingers ;-) I thought about killing a small micro-SD and making it into the "plug" to stick into the camera, then running the cables off to a card slot... but if I have to do more than one it starts to sound like work J Any help appreciated SeanG -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
