Connecting two internal female threads

saeppi · Post by **saeppi** » Mon Feb 19, 2018 6:20 pm

I've got two female threads (one GL32 and one 1/2" BSPP) which function as a converter. In order to be 3D printable, I assume that I need to connect the two ends by creating a hollow cone (see pic).
How would I go about it?

Thanks!

Part->Loft is your friend.

your file have some issues, no walls only threads.

One thread has a helical end. Would the Loft still be the right tool?

You could do it with a loft going down far enough or with a ring on top of the helix.and the loft on top of the ring.

from my expirience you need something like this.

1-draw a profile of the part,
2-revolve profile 360 degrees,
3-make Gl32 thread,
4-make BSPP 1/2" thread,
5-check&3D print.

It is my way, there is may be another one.

p.s. those chamfered inner diameters simulate the threads.
