Thanks for the Tut Elisei.

It is an excellent example of good work-flow. Maybe I could encourage you to make some captions to explain the work-flow when you might have some spare time. Have a good holiday and enjoy the break.

Very neat!

I too am interested in the work flow, especially the way the actions were "mirrored". That looks like quite a time-saver for symmetrical objects.

This is very easy..make a component then make a copy ,mirror it(flip along or scale it with -1) and place it near the other one.
I actually thought this may offend u ,being too simple..

Maybe i ll add some annotations on the video..

Happy Christmas !

Ah! Just one of those things I never learned... I'd always finish 1/2 the model and then copy/flip, but the method you show gives a much more clear sense of proportion.

Thanks!
