Adding threaded holes
- [Voiceover] Now let's look at how we can create threaded holes. If we rotate around on the final model, we can see that we have a threaded hole in the back of this model, and what's important here is that this hole is actually terminating at this hole that runs through the boss. If we rotate a little bit, you can see that it cuts through the model, but it doesn't cut all the way through the model. Once it hits this hole, it simply stops. Let's go ahead and create that threaded hole now. I've created "Holes.IPT" as a starting point, and if we rotate to the backside of the model, you can see that this starting point doesn't have that hole. Let's go ahead and create a sketch, and we can generate that threaded hole now. We'll right-click in the Graphics screen and select "New Sketch," and then simply left-click on the face on the back of the model. To help us in locating this hole, let's go ahead and project some geometry. If we return to the "Create" panel and "Sketch" tab, we can…
