helix go out of the allowed scope?
Hello I am new ot FreeCAD and tried to follow the steps in this link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sl5HAbf-8do&t=1562
and I followed it in every single step, but when I am applying the last step which is the sweeping I get this message and no grove is created on the bolt, can anyone explain what this error means?
PartDesign::AdditivePipe: Link(s) to object(s) 'Helix' go out of the allowed scope 'AdditivePipe'. Instead, the linked object(s) reside within 'N/A'.

Re: helix go out of the allowed scope?
Hi and welcome to the forum!
I didn't wathc the video, because it seems to be a poor one. If you want to use the helix in a PartDesign body, you either need a PartDesign ShapeBinder or you have to use the Helix as BaseFeature.
If it is not for exercising but rather to get the job done: there is also a PartDesign SubtractiveHelix.

Re: helix go out of the allowed scope?
Following the link in the red banner above, can you provide a file and your full version info ?
Without the file :
* the helix touches itself ?
* coplanarity ?

Re: helix go out of the allowed scope?
Helix has this well-known problem with coplanarity.
Re: helix go out of the allowed scope?
Thank you so much for taking the time to look at this issue
Re: helix go out of the allowed scope?
Either select the helix before creating the body, or drag the helix into the body.
You're welcome.Thank you for the PDF file that this great
