Creo is still relatively new to me. I am trying to model a curved rasp-like surface with rows of staggered teeth. However, I cannot figure out how to reasonably create the teeth profile. In Creo I have gotten up through the stage shown in Figure 1. Figure 2 shows what I am trying to make (modeled in a different CAD program). Attached is a parasolid file showing the geometry. My first thought was to extrude a cut from the side to create the profile, but doing so would take a chunk out of the next row of teeth. Any suggestions on a modeling strategy?
Figure 1: This is where I get stuck in Creo.
Figure 2: This is what the teeth should look like.

Hi Jeff,
I'm in the car so I have to be more brief than usual...
That's just a quick guess while I sit in traffic but it should get you started.
Good luck,
Brian
