I think I've found the answer in another thread. Apparently you cannot do the varying pitch springs with the s/w 2000 edition. You can with 2006 though.
I have a problem when it comes to drawing springs. I've grasped the basic springs. I'm trying to create a closed end coil but it's not right. I'm basically adding another coil with a smaller pitch but there's no smooth transition in the wire. looks broken. I have solid works 2000. does anyone...
