Convert real world curves to Cad, help.

And if you only have meat at the fixing points therefore reducing the points of contact, you get away with a multitude of sins in the wall finish.

Even better!

Thought I would show you the installation, (crap phone photo), all went well, ended up using a 'false' wall of 4mm mdf behind. With the dark colour it's almost invisible.
The curves matched the existing wall very well.

Excellent solution there Baz, wish I'd thought of it.

You did think of it!

Or if the flush look is critical, use a false back on the shelves to look like it is the wall.

That might need translating for the the non-aussies here
I await your reply in anticipation...

Box

I'm afraid Baz even a translation would be over their heads. We do have a certain uniqueness to some of our local delicacies.

So true, and that's before you bring Roy and HG into it.

favorite Aussie expression (from a "truckee"): "Spunky sheila"

Box

No doubt from an americanised tv program, complete with subtitles.

Hitchhiking. Riding a road train into Darwin....

Ok, I'll give you that one.
But most people don't realise that "sheila" was already an overused cliche to us back as far as the early 70's when Paul Hogan used it in his TV show. It was probably the book "They're a weird mob" written in the late 50s that popularised it's overuse around the world making it an australian cliche. A great deal of "Aussie Slang" is only used for expectant foreign tourists and hasn't been part of our day to day lexicon for a long time.
