How to make chains?
-
Ok, I apologize if i ask something that has been answered somewhere else, i swear i looked all around the threads first.
Ok, I would like to know how to make "chains"..i am trying to make a lamp with a "hook" on top and that hangs the "lantern" by chains. Oh, and learning on how to bend a shaft to make a hook was be awesome too.
Also, i know about the fillet feature, but is there a way to "round" a side angle? For example, if i am trying to make the sides of a mattress, i want that to be round and not at a 90 degree angle. Anyone know how to accomplish this?
If anyone else has useful advise, please feel free to add anything that you think might help me out.
I have also watched countless tutorials and still not found this advice (I could be watching the wrong things as well).
Thanks for your time!

Lenny, just a suggestion -- if you could include the subject of your post in it's title it would be helpful to others who might be searching for a solution to the same problem, rather than just a generic "help".

Much better

No problem. It also increases the chances of somebody noticing your post that might be able to help you with the problem.

I figured it out! I am so sorry everyone. I thought the files i was missing were in the zip files. I was wrong. Chris if you are reading this, I might suggest stating that people need to grab these before installing the plug in. I am insanely new, and knew i had to have these, but didn't know how to properly read the "error" message i was getting. I thank you for creating these, i apologize if this comes across as if i blame you (i certainly do not), I suggested the disclaimer for others to not get frustrated trying to get this program to work properly.
Thank you, and again, SU Universe, i apologize for wasting your time.

Do you need more than this?

[attachment=0:38bd3kh5]<!-- ia0 -->bender.png<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:38bd3kh5]Clarification for those people that are VERY new to this might help them. I noticed that initially but i assumed that if it was "needed" it would have been in the zip file somewhere. I was stating that if the notation had noted that WAS NOT in the zip and that the person would have to find it, they would be able to save some frustration. It was just a suggestion. The thing to remember when dealing with new people, is that they may not share our savvy when installations are concerned. I know for me, personally, forums are new to me.
I thank Chris, yet again, for his tireless hard work.

I see where you're coming from although I would think that if a file was included there wouldn't be a need to provide a link to it.

i agree with you. I am not saying this was not my fault, i am merely adding a note, so that others would not get frustrated and give up on this useful plugin. I am stubborn and would not quit till i got it to work. This was clearly me not reading between the lines. I know now, how some of these programs work.
My thought was that if i needed a new car, i would not have to go look for an engine, even if the dealer made a mention that cars needed a certain engine to work. I would have thought that was included in the price.
Again, i am not trying to be difficult. I apologize if it appears like i am. Not my intention at all.
