I understand most of the basic sorts of movable attachments like planar and pin, but I'm wondernig if it's possible to have a nut constrained to a thread and when you do the drag feature, have the nut spin down the thread. Is that possible?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Possible.
Create a helical curve on the Screw.
Create a Point on the Nut. Nut ID should be equal to the Screw OD.
Constraints them as follows

Works great, thanks for the help.
Hi Christian.
I found that connection with point on curve a little unstable and it obviously takes quite a lot of CPU power. Therefore I prefer a cylinder connection in combination with a rack&pinion gear corresponding to the thread pitch.
