Dental Mold

Anonymous
Not applicable
I am working on a school building built in 1935. It has concrete dental mold around the top at the main entry. What is the best way to create dental mold? It would be nice to be able to create a profile and add it to the wall type, but I do not think you can that.

Help please.

Thanks

If not for the undulations you could just create a simple profile and add it to a wall type as a sweep.

If you REALLY need that much detail in your model (which I kind of doubt,) then you could try making a line based family that would add the additional projections once the object were stretched beyond a given length.

Personally, I would just draw the lines in elevation if you need to see this pattern and save yourself the increased model size (unless you need this detail for rendering/perspective purposes.)

Alex,
I think you are right about the amount of detail. I had already created a profile and when I render it it looks just fine.
