Creating threads using solids

Thanks I will give that a try. -
If I am creating a solid model using Mastercam Solids V9.1 is it possible to create a threaded hole? I would appreciate any feedback.

Thanks John and Thad that helps a lot. Now I just have to decide if I want to take the time to set it all up. Thanks again -

Thanks Thad. Your right the material library refers to the type of material your cutting. The problem I'm having is getting Mastercam to caculate a different speed and feed when I switch the cutting tool type from HSS to Carbide. The only way I can get it to work is to change the surface footage value myself. It won't change automatically when I select carbide from the drop down menu on the define tool parameters page. I don't normally use this feature either I am just trying to get it to work. Thanks -

It is set on from tool. It seems to use the same surface footage for carbide or HSS for example 440 stainless 400BHN uses a 35 surface footage whether I define the tool as carbide or HSS. Should Mastercam automatically change the surface footage when I select carbide or do I have to change the surface footage my self. I would appreciate any help. -
When I try to define my tool in Mastercam V9 so I can have Mastercam calculate feeds and speeds it gives me the same feed and speed regardless of what material type I define the tool as being. It always gives me the feed and speed for HSS even when I define a carbide tool. I do this after choosing the material type from the material library on the job set up page. How can I have Mastercam caculate feeds and speeds for any material tool.
