I need to make a model for 3D printing but my shape is unique and i can't figure out how to make it or which commands to utilize. It is like a warped plane. The image is a mock-up of what i want and i am referring to the slanted plane which is causing me issue.
One of the faces is not planar. You can bend it in two ?
Or just loft the 2 red ones before a SURFSCULPT
Even easier, I extruded the shape on the XY plane and used the Surface in the SECTION command and it worked, to get a solid !
Let it down, make an extrusion of your base (height 3'') and select the surface option at the right time in the SECTION command.
If you got your warped surface... Did you get it, at least ?
Surfsculpt would have been appropriate but you would have had to make different planar surfaces making you playing with UCS. That needs a little of practice.
i used lines to make the base but it doesnt allow me to join them with reg as it says they are not coplanar.
I know a bit about UCS but issue is that I can't make a surface to properly extrude a solid. I just need to make the slanted plane into a surface so i can extrude it.
My Lord 😕
A region ?
Just make a simple 2D polyline, in 3D it is so smart that it stands on a constant plane (the current UCS) and it easy to close !
In Z direction, you need a LINE !
I am sorry but drawing that is so easy for me that I don't measure everyone's difficulties....
Giving a Z value with ORTHOMODE on makes the creation of that skeleton very easy, doesn't it ?
Very true !!! The result will be the same and it is more direct than my 2 red lines....
It is sometimes hard to think easy !!!
