Good luck. FWIW, post processing doesn't have to be all that complex. Get the hang of working with layers and how to blend them. That'll be most of the battle I think.

fwiw, teak is pretty light, so it might not be too burdensome. Oh, and how about an animation so we can see how they fold?

Probably from a steam engine. Thank you.

Excellent, as usual.

Ha Peter! FWIW the sled goes on the table saw. I didn't install the runners yet. The stop allows you to cut to the length at the inside of the rabbet so all you need to know is the size of the artwork to accurately cut the molding.

@hornoxx said: Can you buy a wood-shape-bender (a real one analog with plug) in a specialized shop? @dave r said: I expect you can buy a steam box although most people who steam bend wood would probably make their own. Dave's undoubtedly correct that (most) pros build their own steam-bending set-up, but Rockler does sell this kit (along with plans for the box itself) for hobbyists: https://www.rockler.com/steam-bending-kit-w-free-bentwood-carryall-plan-download

Thank you.

@gregors said: ISO Standard pitch for M8 coarse is 1,25mm. Fine pitch is 0,75 mm. M6 has a 1,0 mm pitch. Thanks. I know that already. I chose the 1.0mm pitch for my tutorial and based it on the numbers in this table. [image: B5qQ_Screenshot-1_11_20246_44_59AM.png]

Hey Dave, I've always struggled to make threads. I've downloaded your video and will study it to see if it's something that I can actually use. But at this point I am assuming it will be over my head, like most things. Finally got to hear the Master's voice [image: vHPQ_MastersVoice.png] Can't complain about the snow this year here in southwest lower Michigan, been very mild. Unfortunately, that means a lot of wear on my snow tires, but I guess there's a tradeoff for everything. Stay safe, and keep the good info coming. Steve

Very nice! Great presentation. The traditional ortho drawing reminded me of the discussion online that isometric drawings are passe and no one needs them with 3d modeling available. I just used SketchUp for a plumbing diagram, which went into CAD as an iso, for submittal to the city--thank you very much, but yes, ortho and iso works are still very relevant.

LOL! Jeff Miller would like that.

LOL. I do channel him a bit when I set up lighting for renders. Zone system, inverse square law and that sort of thing.

Funny guy.

thanks for the responses.

Transitional? Ikea-ish

nice details!
