hole()
Cuts a drilled hole of the given diameter at each placement, through all
the solids in scope. Chain .depth(d[, tipAngle]) for a blind hole,
.counterbore(diameter, depth) or .countersink(diameter, angle) for the
entry, and .scope(...) to restrict which solids are cut.
Returns: Hole
See the guide for detailed usage examples.

hole(diameter: NumberParam, ...placements: HolePlacementLike[]): Hole
Cuts a drilled hole of the given diameter at each placement, through all
the solids in scope. Chain .depth(d[, tipAngle]) for a blind hole,
.counterbore(diameter, depth) or .countersink(diameter, angle) for the
entry, and .scope(...) to restrict which solids are cut.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
diameter | NumberParam | The hole diameter |
...placements | HolePlacementLike[] | One or more connectors, sketch points or anchored vertices (optional) |
hole(size: string, ...placements: HolePlacementLike[]): Hole
Cuts a fastener hole for the given size ('M6', 'M2.5', '1/4', '#10') at
each placement. The diameter comes from the standard tables: a clearance
hole (.clearance('close' | 'normal' | 'loose'), normal fit by default)
or a tap drill (.tapped() for the coarse pitch, .tapped(0.75) for a
fine one). .counterbore() and .countersink() without values read the
socket-head and flat-head tables for that size. .fasten() on a
clearance hole cuts the matching tapped hole into the next solid along
the hole axis, the one the fastener threads into. Threads are not modelled
yet; the size and pitch stay in the statement for a later thread feature.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
size | string | A metric or inch fastener size label |
...placements | HolePlacementLike[] | One or more connectors, sketch points or anchored vertices (optional) |
