Rotary Saw Blade Modeling
Hi, everyone!
Can you give me a clue on what is the best way to model the rotary saw blade presented in attachment. Sure I can do everything "by hand" but I feel that the better way is either to use Multitransform feature in Part Design or to use the python scripting.

Re: Rotary Saw Blade Modeling
- Model the inside.
- Model one tooth.
- Use Draft->Polar pattern with 360° and number of teeth, don't forget to fuse.
As an alternative you can directly model one pie slice and use the polar pattern.

But why did you get 7 dislikes? Did you kick someone with a microcelly footlace?
