How to make a nut & bolt in Tinkercad

This short video was created to demonstrate out how to make a nut and bolt for 3d printing using Tinkercad. The nut and bolt were printed and presented at Oxford Hackspace's Designing for 3D Printing: Workshop #1.
The finished design of a 12mm nut and bolt has been shared to...

5:41 Don't do that 'by eye'. Use the align tool to centre two pieces.

[@blackness010]

There is a align tool?

[@martinottosson6583]

Yes. To the right of Group and Ungroup.

I think you gave it a good try. This actually did give me a general idea so thank you for the help, but I think you know by now you missed a few steps with this but thank you for this.

[@georgelouie5330]

will printing the same dimension threads as a nut and bolt make fitting parts? doesn't the bolt have to be slightly smaller in diameter?

[@joeemenaker]

"ISO" doesn't mean "isometric". It means "International Standards Organization", responsible for setting... well... international standards for things like... well... screw/nut sizes and pitches.

[@zoemadethis]

You're right, but he's actually saying the name of the object, which is "ISO metric thread" :)

[@warrenjameson5465]

So would it have been easier to just make the bolt first, then duplicated it, and made the screw part a hole, and viola, you have a perfect working nut and bolt?

[@sjoervanderploeg4340]

You forgot to resize the thread radius of the nut to be a little bigger, if you print it like that it won't fit.

[@therealdrag0]

He mentions this at the very end of the video.

[@superconductorchip9072]

Is it possible to make lengths of threaded bar more then 20 Rotation ?
Cheers great Video..

[@DavidsHowtosReviews]

I have a crazy question
Can I take a pic of a shape and move it over to this program and then adjust it?
Like a hook or a coat hanger?
Great video thanks for sharing this helps a lot!

With a little big of creativity i'm almost certain you could use this guide here to do what you were thinking.

[@DavidsHowtosReviews]

Alex Layton thank you for your time and input

[@ilpiccolomeccanico252]

hello and good you did a great tutorial, could you tell me the exact measures on the side of a dice? because when I go to draw a die, I always get a little longer on one side.

[@CorgiAdventurer]

Rotate on the xy plane until both equal then change the measurements of x and y

[@al-madaniacademy3874]

thank you very much you helped me to think good

[@360_tours]

Why didn't you show a final printed product?

[@icenesiswayons9962]

You had a bit of terminology wrong but you still got the point across to a point. You didn't show how to save your images while working on it if the power fails!

[@pingfan]

这个有离线版吗？

[@wylliemchandra442]

sir can me ask??? is MM or CM??

[@ArtisticInspirations.]

Mm

[@danijel124]

In fusion 360 creating a thread takes one click :P

[@obviouslymatt6452]

same with tinkercad. just findit and drag it. the rest of the video was just messing around with settings and explaining what they do

[@CAgrampa1999]

You’re not showing the simple centering tool also, you’re not showing the grouping to make the holes

[@lifehackertips]

3:30 are you teaching children?

[@crispychicken2743]

Try to make an apple

[@shlomi7044]

Such a poor explanation, you should remove the video and upload a normal on

[@stevep2325]

Maybe you should do a practice run on presentation first before you stumble on what you are doing.

[@FlyWithSergio]

You didn't say anything usefull!!! Come on!!!!!!!!!

[@pilbomags488]

This guy only has very minimal knowledge of tinkercad. He doesnt' realize there;s an align tool. he's eyeballing it.
