I'm sure it will be resolved soon.

Seems to be the revert function that is causing the bugsplat

Thanks Dave

Many thanks Dave. I'll give it a try.

Thanks Arail,

Yes the CNC machine was doing the whole thing including groove on the outside rim. on top of that the dimensions for the wheel were requested to be changed a couple of times so it was a really difficult first model to do for CNC!! The spokes were separate to the rim. What I've learnt is as you say:

Keep things as clean and simple as possible
I was advised to increase the facets of any curves, segments or circles as high as possible
It might be an idea to draw in parallel projection as far as possible

I'm also thinking of upgrading to SU Pro8 from my current Pro7 as I was reading about creating outer shells. Maybe this would help?!

Thanks again for the advice!!

Thanks Jeff. Much appreciated.

Sorted. Thanks for your help. I was making the mistake of opening the Curviloft folder by double clicking and dragging the contents into plugins. Thanks again for the help.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Will look forward to messing around with it!!

😄
that´s very promising

As far as I can remember, SU 6 Pro imports & exports DWG/DXF.
As for the SU animate, I think there is a 10 day evaluation version.

Thanks, I must have done something s****d, like copy the file from v6.x, when I didn't see it in the v7.x plugin folder.

Thanks again Jeff - all working perfectly!!
