Any othe sites for parts.

I know that we have looked into the firstcadlibrary, plus the buzzsaw site. Is there any other places to download the inventor files?

Does anybody have any sprockets in inventor format? I believe that I need a #72 and #19? Let me know some time soon please.
Thanks!

I know that in your inventor directory > Samples > Iparts > Gears, you can insert gear iParts. What that basically means is you open up an assembly, insert "Gear Factory.ipt" or "Bevel Gear Factory.ipt" and a little box comes up asking for the number of teeth, the pangle, the thickness, pitch diambeter, and shaft diameter. From that you could probably make yourself the sprocket you need, or atleast something really close.

thanks i will try that at school tomorrow and then get back to you.

Thanks!

For some reason the popup window did not come up. Do you know where to go when that window does not come up?

Hmm... it SHOULD come up. Are you sure you inserted the part file "gear factory.ipt" into an assembly? If you just opened up the part, it might not come up. The idea behind iParts is they're 3d-macros - you program it a bit, put in a few variables, and the part you need comes spitting out. If no dialogue box came up, then I don't know how to help ya out. sorry

Did you try the i-Sprocket on First Cad Library ?
