      Hi there guys, I have to try and replicate this light fitting, I just cannot get my head around creating the shape - could anyone point me in the right direction as it's doing my head in!! Please see plan and elevation of light and the shape in sketchup - I'm stumped.
      Thanks in advance, NickLight Plan and El.jpg Test Light Thing.skp

          Cheers mate much appreciated but the 'curve' goes the whole way round, so the other elevation would have the same curve so to speak... Nightmare! But thanks so much for taking the time to reply!! Cheers,
          Nick

            Hey nick can you make a dome in the elevation and do the same thing instead of just a curve pretty sure that would work with tha same technique

                    Unfortunately not, could get the disk section done okay but the kicked out edge just wouldn't work for me! Have photoshopped in place for now which sucks but hey, it's got me through the first round πŸ™‚
