How to draw gender bender in ML CAD?

Post by backbencher » Sun Dec 18, 2016 7:19 pm

Running ML CAD 3.5, and experimenting w/ a gender bender using headlamps, but I can't get the parts to go together in ML CAD.

I also imagine there are better ways to engineer gender benders, so if you have any suggestions, feel free to share. For this project, y'all will be pleased to know I don't intend to use the Kragle, but just ordinary nuts and bolts - unless I can build it strong enough to just use bricks.

What I'm trying to do is drop the snap to grid in ML CAD. I'm trying to fit Technic pieces together now, and am having the same problem.

ETA: Ah ha! Set to a fine grid, fixed the issue.

Hillman 5mm Metric Shelf Pins fit perfectly in Technic holes. The ones I got were made in Italy.
