Hi folks.

In my tutorial, if you use the Polygon Tool instead of the Circle Tool, you will save the unsmoothing step.

So it becomes a very quick octahedron drawing.

Hi Giddon, hi folks.

I made some tutorials back in 2004, using the empty text technique, and explained it on the old SU forum.

See attached SU 4.0 file for ideas.

Hi Chris, hi folks.

O.3" is 7.5mm (75mm is 3 inches). Other than that, this is an excellent tutorial. How about softening the upper edges of the stone tiles ?

Hi folks.

As soon as you have the magenta or pink inference, press and hold the SHIFT key to lock it. Then you can lengthen the line.

Hi folks.

Lets hope that we will be able to have access to a lot of materials since the usual plastic used for 3D printing will not satisfy the required mechanical resistance of many of the objects we need.

Just go around your house and make a list of what you see : steel, stainless steel, aluminum, cast iron, copper, brass, thermoplastic, clear plastic, polystyrene, polypropylene, glass, paper, cardboard, wood of all kind, concrete, brick, plaster, etc.

Hi folks.

See attached SU file.

Of course the fastest way is to import the existing component but it may need rotations to reorient it.

Hi folks.

Use scenes to remember you different axis settings.

Set the transition time between scenes to 0.

Using the Scenes manager you can even gives meaningfull names to the scenes.

Just clicking on tabs will allow you to quickly switch from one set of axis to the other.
