Hello, I'm new here. I love the eMachineshop software...still getting used to it.

Wondering if anyone is able to lend a hand on a little project of mine?

I've designed a cylinder that is 1.875" in diameter, and 1.5" in length, inner diameter is 1.375".

I would like to create a conical shape from the middle length of my cylinder at the .75" point, to the upper half at 1.5".

I would like the bottom conical diameter to be 1.75", (bottom will have a .25" decreasing step in diameter from the 1.7/8" or 1.875 inch diameter) and the top diameter to be 1.5".

How can I accomplish this?

Attached is my cylindrical drawing so far.

Would appreciate any guidance!

I had initially tried this tutorial but had failed in making it work successfully, however, after reading it carefully a few times, then trying it out in FRONT view (2D) a few times, using Revlove, I was able to finally get it working.

Thanks tech 3!

Here's the end result. (With some other adjustments).

Download CAD Software

"I am in awe at the usability and intuitive interface. Great work, I can't wait to build a few prototype fixtures. I was in need of a CAD program for a new netbook I recently purchased; was at home and needed to flesh out some ideas. One quick download, and in less than 15 minutes I had a good working diagram. The eMachineShop was perfect for my ..."
