Hello OpenSCAD, I don't know where to put this but it bit me again. The current help for the thread= parameter in screw_hole is: thread thread type or specification for threaded masks, or false to make an unthreaded mask. See screw pitch. Default: false Adrian pointed out to me that I should have thread=true in my last run in with no threads in my screw hole. This time I was able to refer back to that discussion and get past the problem How about putting something in the help for thread=true? Thanks and thanks for the help of this group.

The right place to post about something like this---anything that you think is a bug in BOSL2 or a suggestion that doesn't warrant some kind of broad discussion---is to open a github issue on the BOSL2 github page. I have changed the documentation text to say: thread = thread type or specification for threaded masks, true to make a threaded mask with the standard threads, or false to make an unthreaded mask. Default: false Does that address it? On Sun, Mar 12, 2023 at 11:11 PM Bob Roos <roosbob@wybatap.com> wrote: > Hello OpenSCAD, > > I don't know where to put this but it bit me again.
