SOLIDWORKS - Extruding a Cone

Hello

I want to extrude/drill a cone-shaped part with 10 holes (each spaced at a 36° angle). The holes should be parallel to the cone.

I don't know where to start to already break into one.

Attached where the piece is and what the holes should look like.

Hello

You have to make a shot outside the cone. Plane having the right angle, make a sketch of a single hole and make the hole.

Then, starting from the vertical axis of the cone, make a circular repetition of the extrusion of the first hole. All you have to do is enter 10 occurrences  of the hole  function, all automatically spaced 360°.

Kind regards

PS I'll make you a model in a few minutes

Hello

Here are a few pictures of how to achieve it

THANK YOU @ac cobra  ;-)  ;-)  you spoiled @jbpaulin

 

PS: @ac cobra it seems to me that the angle of the holes is not the same as the angle of the slope but that doesn't change anything in your excellent tutorial. ;-)  Note I prefer your method to make the first hole it's simpler ;-) I note this in a corner of my neurons. ;-)

No need for an intermediate function: we take the wizard for drilling, we click on the face of the cone (we are in 3D sketch mode), we constrain the point on a diametrical plane of the cone, we dimension it according to the need, we validate. The hole will be normal to the cone generator
All you have to do is do a classic circular rehearsal.

See PJ for the images

There is also the possibility, thanks to a 3D sketch, to draw a volume (round Ø10) without merging it, and then to subtract this volume from the volume of the cone.

Your solution is very fast no need to do it Schumtz with an additional plan

I didn't know about this possibility of using the drilling assistant on a point, I still believed that it could only start from a flat sketch (so a sketch on a plan)

THANK YOU

Super! Thank you all for your help and responsiveness. I solved my problem:)
