People plant a great number of young trees in the mountains.When the trees grow big and tall enough, they are cut down by workers and carried out of the mountains to the paper mill where fine paper is made from wood.Then it is taken to every corner of the country and used for differe...
I'm just saying, just because a caveman skinned a cow 20,000 years ago and wore it, we don't have to always recreate a 'leather texture' on our 21st-century 3D printed parts. We can move on to more controllable (and futuristic) geometric shapes. You'll see that I mainly stick to ...
Readers who are experts at Rhino might be able to cut the SOLIDWORKS step and create all their shapes in Rhino, but this workflow matches my skill set. And just so people are clear, if you're a mostly SOLIDWORKS user: Everything outside that green box you probably already know how to ...
While this is the same distance function we used before, we don’t need a mesh in the intermediate space. We don’t even need a mesh over domains A and B; there just needs to be a mesh on the boundaries of the objects. This approach takes much less time, but it gives us only th...
Folding and One Straight Cut Suffice Take a sheet of paper, fold it into some origami, and make one complete straight cut. What shapes can the unfolded pieces make? For example, Figure 1 shows how to cut out a ve-pointed star in this way. You could imagine cutting out the s... ED...
Big wave boards (also known as “guns” or “rhino chasers”) tend to be long and narrow, providing a combination of paddle power and control in the pocket, particularly while at speed. Ranging in length from around 8’6″ to 10″6″, guns have narrow noses, drawn in pintails, relati...
Rhino3Dis a freeform NURBS-based surface modeler especially suited for creating complex shapes. With a nearly endless list of features, it allows for sophisticated surface sweeping and lofting routines. For these reasons, Rhino is also used in the automotive, consumer product, and maritime industrie...
blue construction paper to the back, left and right panels to represent water. Use brown paper for the ocean floor to look like the sand. You can use light blue construction paper for the top of the box to represent the sky. Cut out white cloud shapes and glue them to the top as ...
Natural Diamonds formed over billions of years and have gone through an extraordinary journey to become one of the earth’s greatest gifts. Find out more here.
3D printing is an additive technology used to manufacture parts. It is ‘additive’ in that it doesn’t require a block of material or a mold to manufacture physical objects, it simply stacks and fuses layers of material. It’s typically fast, with low fixed setup costs, and can create ...
