@L-i-am Totally agree with removing the car, but perhaps a human or two in the lounge space?

Love the glasswork, beautiful.

Hi Box. Hope you are well. See my reply to Rich. All done, hopefully. Cheers Baz

Hey thanks Rich. I had no idea such a service existed.
Just signed up, got my address and then ordered the Shaper.
So, done deal. Fingers crossed.

I am very keen to get hold of a Shaper Origin. (See link below).
For some obscure reason they are unwilling to ship to Australia.

So If ordered one and had it sent to a USA address, would anyone be willing to send it on to me? It would be a simple matter of re-addressing and paying the freight, no re-packing required.
Of course I would cover all costs.

And it's a lot of money for me, so ideally it would be a forum member that I have had interactions with over the years. (I started with V5 and joined this forum about 20 years ago!)

Is this a crazy idea?

I am pretty much retired but I still spend most of my time in the studio.
I have always been a tech-head as well as a traditional woodworker, but until the Shaper turned up, CNC has always been out of my reach.

I would have a lot of fun with this piece of kit. (Currently, I am just beginning a Teardrop camper for a client, with mostly boat building techniques).

Cheers, Baz.

PS: I can only afford a refurbished unit, which is only available in the States.
PPS: I am fully aware of the difference in Voltages, that wont be a problem.

@RICHARD-STIERS Re: time cleaning up the interior, suggest you try 'Solid Inspector' by ThomThom. Works like a charm.

I think I'm getting a bit 'Old School'. I really don't need a plugin to resize a window.
( And possibly getting a bit cranky too

@dave r said:

I usually don't worry about the aspect ratio of the exported view. I'll crop and resize it to what I want in my image editor. I find that is easier when combining different images, too..

Yes, that is what I do too, but he seems to want a native aspect ratio export. Which would be easier and quicker if he doesn't want to stuff around with image editors.

Pretty simple workaround, resize your window and export.
If you need an accurate ratio, draw a suitable rectangle in the model and carefully bring the window sides into it. Either hide or delete the ratio rectangle and export.

Rich me old darling, thank you for the mind bending, over complicated and frankly beyond me workaround.

You say: 'That contract is no longer in effect'. But that has nothing to do with my contract.
You say: 'I would expect it to stop eventually'. Nobody told me the software was limited in that way.
You say: 'Annoying? but expected.' Expected by who? Certainly not me.

I am no lawyer, but natural justice seems to being abused here.

C'mon, class action anyone?
