Hi,
See at 3dfindit
Professional models to download. It’s free.

Joined the forum to request threading, I’ve had to download fusion 360 as Shapr3D can’t (yet?) perform this basic function, let alone other scripted actions. Is there an API users could access to implement the feature ourselves?
Hello,
Is this feature still into this year roadmap?
Greetings
Hi,
No features at this moment.
But you can create your own on this principle.

SO we keep hearing that a thread/hole tool is coming, but it’s been a while that Shapr3d has made this claim. When this tool finally comes out I want to know will there be other tools to compliment it in the 2d drawings as well because that is just as essential if not more than the modeling thread tool for the actual manufacturing side of things.

+1 for adding this feature. I am baffled this isn’t already included/released as it’s a major deficiency for almost any manufacturing process a part might be designed for.
The lack of this feature prevents me from being able to effectively use Shapr3D to produce any production-ready drawings as it’s impossible to appropriately denote a hole callout for a threaded hole series.
it’s also a huge workflow slog not having a proper hole tool and having to size, constrain then select sketch faces manually to extrude.

Any update on when this will be rolled out?
The first of never. At this point we the community would be better served if they gave us a programming interface to create tools and scripts on our own. Then we could help ourselves and each other. But it seems they are more interested in keeping us hostage and gaslighting us.
This is like the circle tool that you could only define with a radius. I poked at them and called out all their BS reasons until they finally allowed circles to be defined by a radius. We use circles as holes. Holes have a diameter. Why should I have to do math to create a circle when I’m in a modeling program running on a super computer?
Do a search on my user name if you are curious. Anyway, I’m pretty sure I’m done with Shapr3D as it has become something else than what it started out as and they seem to be marching to someone else’s drum than the community. They forced history based modeling on us and no one ever asked for it.
So I’ll give up the convenience of the iPad for a mature full featured solution. They really need to look at the history of CAD and what made certain programs successful. AutoCAD made it on being pirated and having command line and at least 3 languages to program and extend it with. The 2nd was more important than the first.
Yes, TinkerCAD has some really good features. Alignment of objects, for instance, is so easy!
It would be great to have this feature as that and generative design are the only reasons I boot up Fusion360 nowadays.
Alternatively - having ability to store and easily recall subassembly templates would provide a good workaround as I can just store a bunch of threads/hardware in there.
