???Drawing hexes around isocircles???

[nkyoung_21]

Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to draw a hex screw on an isometric plane. I've created the isocircle, but I'm having trouble drawing the hexes around the isocircle. Any ideas?

I have AutoCAD 2009 64-bit.

Thanks

I don't know how accurate the result is but the picture shows one method.
The green lines are drawn from the intersections to TANgent to the isocircle then extended to the other side faces.

To find non-isometric lines you need to locate end points. In ortho view draw a square around the cirlce and hex. Measure along the x and y axis and transfer those dims to the iso square to loacte end points.
