    • Sharing Models With Customers

      I haven't looked into this in quite a while. What's a good way to share my model with my customer?

      I'd like to create Scenes for them to click thru and don't want them to be able to edit it.

    • Texture A Compound Curved Surface

      Folks! I forgot how to texture this compound curve roof surface, something about Importing the tex image, exploding it then painting the surface? Not having any luck!

      you can see how I hand stitched the compound roof plane, lots of clicks!

    • RE: Catamaran

      The purpose of the daggerboard (or any keel) is to balance the force of the wind on the sails. Without a daggerboard or keel, a sailboat could not sail up-wind and would simply be blown sideways. During a storm, daggerboards can help reduce the tendency of a small boat to tip over ("breach") due to waves.

      almost all catamarans have these but with our trimaran we went with a full length fixed fin keel on our center hull.

      That's what I did! After getting SUp maybe 22 years ago, I always created Plans for all my local projects before building them, and suddenly realized I could be selling them 🙂

      Hey Bryan, not to be picky but did you put netting between the bows up forward? I can't see any in your renders. Most all cats and tris do that, we had cris crossed seat belt straps between ours.

      No these were people.skp I've had since the early 2000s. Not a big deal now that I know about tags.

      How is it that there were already Tags in the manager, that were turned off? Or were those created during my Import attempts?

      Hhmmm, I just noticed this laptop I'm getting today
      https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B2YBB56J?ref=ppx_pt2_dt_b_prod_image

      has win 11 on it. Is there going to be a big diff from win 10 which I've had for awhile?

      anyone have a good link so I can explore this difference more?
