first of all i have 3 parts here


1 is the arc


2 is the line (connected at pnt3 and pnt4)


3 is just a point offset from part1 in the x,y and z


i am unable to constrain the line from pnt3 to pnt 4 to many degrees of freedom i guess how do i create a datum that will do this


end result i want to redefine the planes in part 3 to make the line move about the arc maybe 10-20 degrees in all


can anyone help me with this

basically what i have here is a a rod with ball joints connecting the 2 points so it can swivel in all 3 axis but i am unable to constrain this


sorry as i am unable to upload parts but it is real easy to model





any ideas
