I made my own design for something but completely followed the same steps you did with my own dimensions for the thread. But when I 3D print it. For some reason its printing the thread on its own and not the solid cylinder base. I'm not sure why please can you help? I thought the thread and cylinder could be 2 separate bodies at first but then why would the stl file show it as one body. Also in solid works its says solid bodies(1).
Really nice job. I want to print some objects which have motion such as a door that can open and close. Can 3d print achieve this motion at the real object? At software the motion is working properly
Yes, if you want it to print as an assembly then you will want to ensure that there is a decent gap between the bodies that you do not want to print connected but not such a large gap that any bridging fails. You should look up videos on how to design print in place models that will provide better instructions
