    BlenderGIS can get you pretty good images.. you do need an API key to get set up but it's all free and you can even generate 3d geometry based on the elevations in the satellite images.. it tiles in blender so you the more you zoom the better the image quality to a point.

    I think you have to align your hinges on the same axis , then take the protractor and place it in the center of a hinge's bolt and rotate. It should do the job ! Take care ! [image: 1.jpg] [image: 2.jpg] [image: 3.jpg] [image: 4.jpg]

    Sam, please (if you have not done this yet), try to group your bowl in SketchUp and export the model with this grouped geometry (rather than raw geometry) included.

    It's always better to ask people for permission (although the terms of service try to imply that everything publicly shared can be re-used, modified, derivated, redistributed. Every modeler has granted these rights for other users). Next to the username is sometimes a blue envelope icon that opens a contact form. Unfortunately users can turn it off and then there is no way to contact them (except you find their username somewhere else on the internet and are sure it's the same person). [image: contact.png]

    ok, if we are talking about create and animate organic characters and so on, i totally agree with you.. blender is blender.. but if we are just talking of a coffee cup i think sketchup is good enough, you are right, maybe you need a couple of plugins of course, but at least you don't need to import/export/convert/learn blender..

    And whilst I could not get different units displaying in the two panes, I did manage to get one pane to show the units suffix and the other pane display without the 'mm' - seems illogical and inconsistent. Before now it always seemed to display in current units properly ? Can anyone else get my effect ?

    Yes, I agree with you and I will try the end points suggestion. Regards the surfaces I used curviloft but I am really struggeling with it as there is no real documentation. Things are happening that I don't understand, sometimes when I selct a line it will e.g. select a whole rectangle and so on. If you can point me to a tutorial that is suitbale for a humble beginner (skinning is what I'm really after) that would be great. Thanks for your kind help anyway. There are so many little things I am struggling but I set myself a bigger project knowing I will come across many points where I will have to learn new things. All the best Mike

    Thank you TIG for your help. I was using the SCF Powerbar (I am not sure of the exact version, but it was listed as the most recent). I have downloaded the Component Spray v 1.4.3 and it works great. Thanks again.

    I see you have a solution and you have the pro version. You could also have done this by creating a tube, dragging copies into place, size them and then use the solid tools to create the intersections or even use the old school method of intersect with model and clean up. Just saying as there seems to be a trend around here to look for plugin solutions before thinking about using the native SU tools.

    That projector Valerostudio linked to is just a light, a mirror and a lens. The original artwork needs to be printed on paper so it'll project whatever you printed.

    TIG that works excellently. Maybe it seems a small thing but it should make working in this project much better. Gives a perfectly aligned scene for LO. THANKS! Peter
