Can someone calculate the optimum sinewave formation for each of the individual nine tails used to flog this particular dead horse, please show all your working.

I was thinking of the general use where you want to see if a duct is intersecting a beam. You'd just want the tool to show you where so you can fix it yourself.

Another thing to consider is that some plugin authors are going to add new features for SU 2016 and forward. This has to do with the change in security. Some unscrupulous individuals have been opening RBS files and taking code that doesn't belong to them. Trimble added a new encryption strategy to protect plugin authors IP. I'm pretty sure they realized their own sales potential over this. At least old versions of SU will still work with old versions of the plugins (minus enhancements and bug fixes).

Great job. I just like it so much. Keep it up.

@brooklynia373 said: This is one of the reasons I love SU. When I do any model that will eventually be realized in the real world I walk thru the steps of how its parts will be made and then assembled. I usually get way to detailed (like actually modeling inlay as opposed to drawing it on the surface) but that helps me figure out how and if the thing can be built, and gauge the amount of work involved. I'd interested in seeing an example of your work? Model and real of course.

@unknownuser said: The problem with Window Explorer seems to be fixed. Whoopie. So thanks to everyone who figure this out and took care of the problem. Ken Yes, Hurrah! And skp preview as well! (Although, for some reason, not for all of them).

Thanks Keith, will check out the plugin. @ Mac, thanks for the Wood Handbook, great resource.

Can I have your boat? Christmas is just around the corner

Wow, in the Gallery, thanks Rich. Cheers Cotty. Dave: You can just see a strong arris on all edges in the model. In the real world I will hand-plane these, no sanding, I love the look of timber straight from the blade. I see what you mean about the single board on top and two below, will have to think about that. Now if you will excuse me, I have to go and look at the gallery

Solo nailed it, I reckon... [image: xHrC_trimsulogo2.jpg] As Jean Lemire says "Just stirring" or was that someone else? PS: this is my latest template

It wasn't that long ago but nearly. Cracked me up.

Thanks chaps, Jing or Screenr sound just the ticket. @box said: Sorry about the ewe's, I had an attack of kiwi.

Thanks Gabor, Tig. That was it, I had 'accept cookies' ticked in Firefox but had the wrong option - 'keep until I close Firefox' - instead of 'until they expire'. Cheers, Baz

Hi Sonder, all measurements in Su were entered via the VCB, the drawings are 2d in plan view, so no "~"s in SU. However just tried to reproduce this in a new drawing but all fine. But have discovered I need to have 'Autoscale' on in LO and everthing comes right. I've no idea why, I've checked the help files on this, but it's all beyond my poor brain. But problem solved I guess, thanks for your help. Baz

Thanks for embedding the video Pilou.
