    Hi There,

    How can I draw 3 holes on cylinder with 120 degree even space?

    Thanks a lot,

  2. Create a plane to draw hole one on if you don't already have it draw and
    extrude or revolve if it is a complex hole then circular pattern around the
    temporary axis of the cylinder. pick 3 with equal spacing. Or type 120 in.

    Hi
    Insert a plane on the axis of the cylinder and the a further two more at 120
    degree angle. Use each plane as your sketch plane and sketch your hole (or
    use hole wizard) then extrude to the surface of your cylinder.

    good luck
