SGiqknob
by Tim C. Lueth, SG-Lib Toolbox: SolidGeometry 5.6 - Modeling function
Introduced first in SolidGeometry 5.0, Creation date: 2021-02-02, Last change: 2025-09-15
returns a inch quarter knurled knob for inserting hexagon pin as bolt or shaft for mechanisms
Description
This function and solid is part of the quarter inch mechanism family, that can be actuated by a standard hand drill with quarter inch bits.
The pin is inserted using a transition fit
This ist just a replacement for a real tool. I would recommend to better use a torque screw driver to hold a hexagon or hexalobular (torx) bit
