Je suppose donc que les parties découpées de ce modèle ont été appliqués à la main, pas dans Stella. Darnit.
Toutefois, je suis vraiment ravi de ce modèle. Merci Roland, c'est très généreux de votre part pour envoyer le fichier. Je vais regarder votre site pour voir ce que vous faites prochaine.

I ...

Thanks Roland and love your website by the way.
That is some serious machinery. My question however, related to the software. Were you able to get Stella to create these cutout shapes?

I was just thinking how good it would be for this forum to have a section for free Stel.files that have been created or requested by users.
This can only be good for you, as people get to show off works created by your program, inspire others and reach new heights with your software.
Your software ...

You've inspired me and I've just posted for a tut on getting the cutout shapes into models. Absolutely sublime.

Very grateful Ulrich, thank you.
I'm now going to move over to another post to ask how to get holes in models if you'd care to check it out?

One of our members, 'Bouts de bois Créations', made this fabulous piece.

Can you tell me how to get the holes in models please?

Hi Ulrich. Is it possible to get your stel,file? I've just attempted a model of this one and I'm not satisfied with the proportions of it. I prefer yours.

Thanks Ulrich. Just about to print that model up now.

Terrific. Now for the geometrically challenged, that step by step goes....?

Hey guy, fraid I left that one unfinished as I realised it was too busy. I will be tackling the 26 version again though - a breeze compared to the 50. I thought I'd like to leave a perimeter around the base of the augmentations though. Any idea how? Perhaps this picture will explain what I mean ...

Quite happy with the 26, found the 50 a bit busy. Will continue to play around with this one, Thanks again.

Thanks for both helping. I'm currently finishing a model at the moment. Incidentlally, Rob, might pay to throw 'Moravian stars' into your keywords for Stella, as they are very popular and templates impossible to find. Thanks again.

err um... Got the Archimedes model up. Now very simply, could you please give me a step by step for geometrically-challenged dummies?

I see.... sort of. Too many weird angles for merging. And these angles need strong support so will use the triangle idea, thanks.
Doesn't look like there's an easy way.
My first model was trialed at about 20cm long and in copy paper. (I didn't trust the template - not realising the paper would bend ...
