Re: Chain

Hey guys... Just wondering, can anyone tell me how they constrained a chain using the .ipt files in the KoP for their drawings? I've never done chain before... only belts. I personally don't like the chain generator in Inventor (I mean, the chain looks like a belt...), and was wondering if anyone knew how to go about using .ipt files and making/constraining the chain. I've created a chain with the correct amount of links and everything... I just don't know where to go from there (I tried constraining it and got frustrated when it wouldn't work after a good hour)
Thanks!

-Zach
