[Plugin] EP_Fasteners. Creates 3d printable threaded UPDATED

Dave R

Any chance you'll make it use more segments to create smoother curves? They still seem pretty rough to me.

Hi!
FOr some reason, at the main Screen all icons appear double one of them is the normal icon and the other is the selected icon(blueish color). Uninstalled from the root of the SU2015 folder and reinstalled again but nothing happens.
Pretty good pluggin and so far the unique one that does this but still have some glitches.
Too bad I cant reply with a solution.

Hi, I added a Quality dropdown on the main menu where you can select higher segment counts...

Hi! That would happen if the Javascript or JQuery doesn't run... Can you please tell us what your OS and Sketchup versions are?

Thanks! Jay

hi,
thanks for your excellent plugin!
i´m glad, because it starts working...
i´ve found that it cuts hole through unclosed model, is there any
way how to make it cuts through component or a group please?
wondering, if is there any chance in the future version to make our unique eg.nuts or bolts please? ( something like profile builder ruby )
keep working!

Just wanted to say thanks for creating this extension, and to ask why the version in the Extension Warehouse (which is 1.0.0) is older than the one posted here?

I first installed via the warehouse, but it didn't work properly, so it was a relief to find that the one posted here worked as expected.

Thanks again.

This will reset the dialog on a mac

      @@dialog.show()

The issue I have is with threaded thru holes, both breeds...
the first threaded thru hole takes minutes [many], a second of the same is instant...
a change in the params will revert to slow-mo...

BTW: what are the observers for, if possible it is best not to have them on mac SU...

I have the same problem than Oxer, (me menu box doesn't refresh...)
I don't understand how to reset with this code in the ruby console...
Can someone clearly explain to me ( /us ) how to reset the dialog box????

thanks!
Francois

Oxer

I do it manually, right-click over the window and refresh.

It had to be said ...

Thank you very much, I could look for so long it was obvious

And many thanks for this great plugin!

Oxer

Nobody help us with the code so I used a rapid solution.

Hello,

I have used your tool EP Softwares and works well with 2016 sketchup.

I have an application where I have to use metric LEFT hand threads both internal and external.

How can I use EP Tool for metric LEFT hand threads making.

Please help me to understand.

Thanks & Regards,

I am using Sketchup 2016, which others here seem to have no problem with. However, the plugin will not drill threaded holes though a solid. If I make a box 2"x2"x2", I cannot drop a threaded hole through the thing. I place the "circle" on a face, but then nothing happens.

HOWEVER, if I pick a length, like for a blind hole, and set the depth to 2", it does fine. Goes right through.

Any idea why the threaded through hole is not working?
