I was interessted in that theme but this really looks very complicated. I wanted to make some sliding doors dynamic.

It's a nice video! I have seen it before. The new thing on my video is that the worm drive is curved or enveloping around the wheel.

Have you try the Medeek Truss plugin ? 😉

No i haven't tried it yet..

And Fredo Scale Radial Bender ? 😉

Yes i know, it is part of fredo tools..

But i like to use flowify.. I show the basics i know, main part was getting lines from sandbox.. You can use any plugin to bend.. 👍

Thanks! Curviloft is a precious tool!

I did get the cup analogy but I wasn't sure the others would ! 😉

Really, the cup analogy has pitfalls. First or Third, the right hand view will look identical, be it the hollow inside of the cup, or the bottom of the cup, both would result in a "donut" end view on either side. TRUNCATED CONE! Accept no substitutes.

Unfortunately this is more like a speed drawing demonstration than a tutorial. It doesn't really teach anyone how to do what you are doing.

I sped watched one of the other tutorials. You obviously have a firm grasp of using SketchUp and Extensions.

My only suggestion would be the pay attention the segment number on curves, arcs and circles. In some instances you are creating denese geometry for no gain. Bezier Spline is a great tool but using 20 segments on a curve is overboard is places.

:thumb: yes, a cool model idea and video tutorial indeed - thanks for sharing !!
would you mind to post your raw model here or on 3d warehouse?? I wold like to
try exactly this exeecise too 😄

Best

I find the railing model from warehouse by searching "railing", you can find very nice models by this search.. I upload my exercise file to mediafire, you can download.. A little gift is in it.. May be ı forget to unhide, so make all models visible by unhide all..
