TERRAIN DESIGN

[PDLINSCHEID]

Hello,

How do you create a 3D Terrain model similiar to the one shown in this video?

Once you have this, what is the best method to splice it for cutting each layer using a laser?

Thanks,

Phil

Use this:

Then run the model through this:

@PhilProcarioJr Thanks for sending this to me. I am having trouble converting to T-Splines or BRep. I have a free hobbyist copy of Fusion, is this the reason?

Thanks again,

Phil

No the free hobbyist version is the same as the paid version. Can you attach a F3d file to this thread so I can see what is causing your problem?

A very interesting development on Fusion.  Pretty innovative... bridging to  123D and then 3D printing...

Thanks for sharing this.

I'm always looking for new and innovative ways to get the job done. 

I actually like the fact that I have a lot of tools in my toolbox because each one is really good for it's intended use.

I've been told all my life to think outside the box and this is just one example of that.

Cheers

Phil
