Adapting a relief onto a rolling pin

[donaldo3]

I am using a 3D scanner to model z-adapted reliefs the fast way. The reliefs are about 5mm high How can I adapt, deform, roll these reliefs up onto a rolling pin which I would like to 3D print? Please get me right, I do not only want to bake sweets which have the outline of a certain object, I want to bake small reliefs. I did a lot of trials but, they are far away from what we would expect 😉 tasty 😉 they are but... - don

Can you share some screenshots of what you're trying to do?

It sounds like you're looking for a deform tool like a bend or twist, like this:

There's not currently a feature that does this, but you can add your support by voting up the idea in the Ideastation.

The only other thing I can think is something along these lines using the sketch project to surface tool.

I hope these help. Please let me know if you have any questions.
