Summary
Use a helix as a sweep path for the
SWEEP (page 1027) command to create
springs, threads, and circular stairways.
Initially, the default base radius is set to 1. During a drawing session, the
default value for the base radius is always the previously entered base radius
value for any solid primitive or helix.
The default value for the top radius is always the value of the base radius.
The base radius and top radius cannot both be set to 0.
