          I rarely work in the city.. I just live here then fly out to build.
          regardless, I generally build inside..

          If outside, I use other surface materials & p.t. framing but nothing beats using the european plywood for the final layer. great material to work with (very strong/durable yet still pliable/workable) and the surface is super good for riding on. (fast/smooth with just the right amount of tack)

                      Original model was SU or Rhino?

                      Seems perfect for prototype! ๐Ÿ‘
                      Any idea of time for the process till the edition to the PDF file ?

                      Next : in what material you want to make it ?

                          print it onto paper then cut it out yourself! ๐Ÿ˜„

                          or, take the pdf or eps file to your local laser cutting service (there are a bunch of those nearby.. not sure if they're easy to find in smaller cities)

                          if you send the file off then have the kit mailed back to you, i'm not sure how long it will take..

                          that said, i might take my computer or file to the guy down the street to get a $quote.. i'm curious now.

                            took me a while to find a format that will import but eventually tried .obj and it worked fine..

                            curiously, dwg or dxf weren't acceptable formats ๐Ÿ˜„

                              thats neat. did u send it as a solid? or as a matrix like you showed your SU model earlier? I would imagine a solid.

                                yeah, just a single outer shell.. (sketchup solid)

                                I'll try some other non-solid exports later to see what happens

                                      oh, yeah.. instant.. in the first screenshot i posted from the app, you'll see the panel on the right side.. as i change the parameters on the left, the cut list on the right updates along with the model.. the pdf is the same thing as the right panel so it's just a matter of saving the pdf..

                                      the app gets sluggish when you start making a whole bunch of intersections/slices.. i imagine these real time booleans require some serious calculating power so i'm not sure if they'll be able to improve it in that dept.

                                          Is this feasible in a real world scenario?

                                          Would you actually frame and skin and ramp/bowl in this manner or is this something that would be new in this field?

                                          The reason I ask is because I saw a few videos of Team Pain in action. Stunt Junkies on Discovery showed the Grand Canyon ramp. So if this is a proof of concept then I'm intrigued.

                                            yeah.. entirely feasible
                                            thing is, i wouldn't want to surface this thing.. i like how it looks.. i'd rather build it in the standard manner then maybe mirror this one next to.. that'd be sweet.

                                            yeah, it's nbd

                                            i'm not 100% sure i'd like to do it like this because i'd be paying a cnc operator to do most of the cuts instead of my crew.. i gotta look out for the boys you know ๐Ÿ˜„

                                            the mirroring scenario works out ok though.. the boys get their cash and people have something cool to look at as well as something awesome to ride.
