    I tried to put in a thread over 1 inch on a round bar stock model. The
    annotations dialogue box would only permit me to put in cosmetic
    threads between 0 and 1". How can I put a larger cosmetic external
    thread on the model?
    I looked through the old questions already. Any help is greatly
    appreciated. Running SW 2005.

    Sorry billyb,
    I have to ask the obvious, "Is the bar stock 1" in diameter?"
    If it is, then it is impossible (physically) to put a thread larger
    than the stock itself. BTW, I have never heard of anyone having this
    problem.

    Yes the stock is 1 inch dia. , I guess what I'm asking is after I pick
    the od, am I tell the computer the root diameter of the thread? I
    think this is what its asking.

    I thought threads were defined by the major diameter, not the minor (or
    root) diameter.
