honoluludesktop, can you give a screen shot of your photoshop layers?

There exists a bulk uploader for the 3D Warehouse that allows one to add images to the upload among other things. It is intended for use by companies uploading lots of models. I used it a few years ago when I did a bunch of models for a furniture maker. I think you would have to contact Google to check availability of the uploader.

Why not ask you to the autor? 💚

Very nice looking bed.

As for the glue up issue, you're right. You can never have too many clamps. One thing you could do to help with alignment is to drill a couple of holes for short dowels for alignment. Once you glue them in, they'll be like the rest of the wood. Another thing would be to leave the pieces a little long--you should do that anyway when gluing up like that--and using small nails driven in and their heads cut off. These will prevent the pieces from sliding while the glue is wet and they can be cut away when the piece is trimmed to length. Just make sure you know where they are so you don't hit them with the saw.

If you have access to a jointer, you could just leave the pieces over wide, too. Then, after gluing up you can true all the faces.

This is off topic but I just have to say your name "humpmetwice" made me LOL! I'm new here and your name expresses my feelings every time I discover a new cool plugin. OK back on topic.........

Long story on how I got that name but it stuck and I went with it, plus you don't have to worry about it already being used by someone else!

Almost done!

Sounds like you need Bezier Spline

and curve maker is another good one.

I have Bezier spline but I think curve maker is more on the lines of what I was looking for thank alot!

The question is who was John’s original father?

James Cameron.

If you have a 360 degrees environment image you can place that in the Background slot under Environment. Remember to spesify which type of environmap you have. (spherical, cubical etc.)

So to recap...
The plugin 'modelfunction' is the culprit ?

Perhaps best avoided UNLESS you anticipate glitches ???

Thanks Dave and my work continues!

No worries. Go do something else for awhile, though. 😉

I think if you acknowledge where the orginal came from I think that should be ok

I think it's much better now! 👍

However the frame rate still seems to be a bit jaggy. How many frame per second did you export it?

Thanks for the help guys, I ended up using Fredo's Curviloft and it came out pretty good for what I was needing.

I quote Dave's advice and I'd also add that it would be better to add doublers glued to sides and kickers to give more strength to the piece. As for using Kreg pocket holes, I wouldn't do that. Here in Italy they are much advertised but I really don't like giving to such a nice piece so many screws. Go for tenons or try biscuits. If you can't help but using pocket holes, use them where it's the only possible solution for you.

No problem. If you wanted to optimize a little more, then instead of 2 ends components, one with a DC copy would work.

If you had needed the hole diameters to be dynamic, that would be a little more challenging.

Regarding Country Blueprint, can you verify that the font you downloaded has the right to embed? We've had customers who get a font and think they're good, but if the font isn't licensed properly (to allow export), it wont work.

Here's my guess at last.

If you look at the plan below the roof model, I started using the rear slope (7:12) to complete the front high roof as indicated in previous posts. However I thought this looked worse so I changed it in the model to be 12:12 all sides of the front high roof. I also dropped the garage roof eave in the model, as I think this makes the symmetrical part work better. However that requires that you push the door wall of the garage out a little (no big deal), so the resulting roof works with the master bedroom roof.

I left the "terrace" uncovered. I think that is a better design and creates the roof ridge of the central 7:12 in accordance with the elevation (not so high). Besides the plan has a dotted line at the "porch" indicating it is covered perhaps and the "terrace" is not. I scaled off the graphic and I think my roof is scaled different than yours, but the concept is there.

The top of the high front roof is not to be flat really. You'd have a low slope in four directions, but you'd not see it really. Or a skylight with a dramatic shaft in the great room.

OK-- so I see in yours the high pitch is only on two sides, that makes the ridge for the front element work. That looks pretty good. I wonder though if you can make the lower roof each side of that have more ridge and be symmetrical, plan allowing, to create a better visual support for the high roof. Good luck. Peter
