Thanks for the info.

Except that there appears to be a little step where the chamfer meets the ends, you could build a sort of sled that holds the leg at 45 degrees and run it past an ordinary rabbet bit. If that step is there you'd have to stop a bit short of the end, move over a bit for the step, do the end, and then clean up the little step with a chisel.

Thanks Dave
That's what I ended up doing. I guess I'm stuck with that.

Thanks guys for your input, I really appreciate it. Dave thanks for the comments an SDmitch thanks for the help. I did come across a post that led me to Fredos Scale tool that lets you scale a component to a specific dimension which seems to be just what I had in mind. Thanks again!

Is the edge just drawn freehand and then push/pull?

Baz, how do you get the checking lines at the end of the board in your render? Is that also drawn in the model?... or a bump/displacement map?

It was a bump.

I had designed some plywood benches who's backs flipped forward to make a table. Had underseat storage too...I should find those files again, maybe update them.

Thank you sirs.

I had a great (and long) phone conversation with him and at one point he talked about leaving the line when cutting dovetails. I hadn't see the video on that detail yet and I was surprised. It does make a great deal of sense, though.

Thank you David and Rich.

I thought about doing a render of this but decided I like the way the glasses appear in the straight out of SketchUp drawing. It would have been nice if I could get a higher resolution image of the brewery's logo.

Congratulations!

Very nice David.

I am just now introducing myself to Sketchfab, and here is a Sketchfab version of this in which one can examine the method of joinery.

Enjoy. https://sketchfab.com/models/61a26a95bb2f4f5cace4d8c466982e6e

Thank you, gentlemen. Here's a quick Shaderlight render; I should probably tweak the settings to try to give more shine to the finish.

Thanks, Hornoxx. I'll post again when I've completed the model.

heller mug by vignelli.jpg
Here's another of her iconic designs: A coffee mug by Heller. Comes in a zillion colors, plus clear plastic or porcelain. Still in production. How many of us have owned one or drunk from one over the years?

Thank you, sir. They are about 24 in. tall so not really that big.

Merry Christmas and bah humbug too!

Just got the '39 pencils' set. Love em!

Thanks, all.
A lava lamp would be a good addition. I just don't have the patience to animate one in Dynamic Components.
Best,

Just make one and put it in there while she's not home. 😄

Very good, David. I've been too busy with travel and presentations and such to do much in the way of practice. Glad you posted something.
