Request for aid for the creation of keyways with rounded bottom

3D Design Volume Model

Hi all

I allow myself to ask you this question because I am starting out on Solidworks

I would like to make a pin punch and I need to make a groove of 8 mm in diameter  with a rounded bottom of 8 mm in diameter as well.

Imagine making a groove with an 8 mm diameter ball cutter.

16.5 mm deep and 18 mm long.

I can make this groove well, but the 8 mm diameter bottom is a problem for me.

I thank you for your help and I ask you to be indulgent because I am a neophyte in CAD

Thank you

Hello

To put it simply; I advise you to increase the depth of your groove by 4mm and to apply a radius of 4mm since your tooling has a diameter of 8mm.
