Hey guys. I want to design a bayonet lock, following a clearly defined path that can be easily adjusted to test the best setup with 3D printed prototypes. I have a cylinder as a basis and would like to extrude the material along a defined path, like if a milling head of 4.5 mm diameter would do the job. The path should start vertically for 8mm and then turn horizontally to rise in a 20 degree angle by a height of 4mm. Finally the pocket should have an additional depth of 0.2mm to block the lock (an axial pressure will be applied on the lock).
My attempts up to now resulted in a pretty crooked groove
