Hi Michael, by "ribbed" I guess I was referring to the design detail of the design in the first post. As it has lots of ribs on it. Sorry for the confusion, they could be called bumps or humps too :).

I agree about the fasteners, I let our mechanical engineers handle all of that very important stuff in SW.

Hi Will I see - but how would you expect a specialized command to create that stuff to work? It's hard to make a specialized command for something that is not easily controlled by specific parameters...

How did you create that ribbed type design in the first post, was it by having several sweeps that were then booleaned together?

It could possibly be easier if you built the ribbing into the profile curves more directly so that the sweep generated the final shape right off the bat, see this previous post for an example:

A little update, I added a knob to the collection and made a 3d print of it.







My only complaint about Moi has to do with the fact that I haven't upgraded yet! I continue to use Moi at my work, it is such a handy tool, I'll probably be upgrading really soon!

Hi Will, I'm glad that you're finding MoI useful at your work.

The 3D prints turned out great!
