aardvark Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 That's sensational! What's the limitations with TinkerCAD? I don't know anything about 3D printing - just asking for a friend 😉. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know anything about 3D printing - just asking for a friend 😉. I’m not entirely sure Dean, but it is obviously related to the complexity of the shapes. If there are lots of curved surfaces then they will be drawn with lots more polygons in 3D and it tends to get stuck exporting stuff for printing if it’s too complex.

RMweb Gold trw1089 Posted February 25 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted February 25 I’ve taken @St Enodoc’s comments about doing my own etching to heart and decided to try and do the frilly bits of the clock a bit better than my first “agricultural” efforts… Here is what I think is a much better representation of the clock top now. 7 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what is so nice about RMWeb. A very supportive community, in my experience. A fantastic bit of modelling @trw1089 Edited February 25 by Fishplate Missed a bit. . . . 1 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold trw1089 Posted February 25 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted February 25 I think you aren’t prepared to accept some critique then you’ll never grow as a modeller. I always try to approach my modelling by being willing to learn and improve rather than just accept the status quo. Sometimes it hits a bit close to the heart, but that’s probably because deep down I probably feel the same. I value all the comments I get, as they all help me figure out what might be good enough for me to accept and move on, or refine and improve.
