Can some one suggest me any good plugin for the screw holes bolt and nuts in grasshopper

BoltGen is a Rhino plugin, not Grasshopper: [image] BoltGen with Manuals and help for Rhinoceros (Windows and MAC) Create accurate Metric and English Bolts and Nuts in Rhinoceros

thank you @Joseph_Oster but its rhino how can i have in gh !!

I’ve used the Elefront plugin to drop in blocks of bolts/nuts, along with cylinders that I end up using for Boolean/Solid Difference operations to cut the holes. Means you have to have a file for the bolt and nut, but that’s easy enough to get from something like GrabCAD or McMaster-Carr.

Agreed, I’d just download any from Mcmaster then put it in a brep container.

Because I end up using the blocks to make layout views, etc, my process is: Download the part from McMaster (or GrabCAD, or Misumi, or wherever) as a STEP file Make sure that the base point and orientation of the part make sense, with regards to how I’m going to insert the file. Bolts, for example…

@ssommerv (elefront plugin used) it make the wrok flow a bit good i have used elefront plugin and try to do screw.3dm (630.5 KB) screw.gh (9.0 KB) [screw]

If you want to show the grasshopper file maybe it would not be a bad idea move the picture of the viewport so that the definition stays visible in the background
