Bump! I'd hoped this might last more than an hour or so at the head of the forum before it was lost! :)

bump (again)

I've stickied this thread plus the annual meet one so they should be both at the top!

I was playing around with a modelling package during my lunch break and.....

Yeah, right! :D

I might just steal one of these though if you don't mind

:eek: I'm sure i don't know what you mean.

What one do you want to steal Jim? It could be personalised to you. But you'll have to wait till 12:30 :p

I'm thinking I might use the second one, but it's fine as it is, I think. Secret project! :)

Nice work Dezzy. +++ Got a 3D printer by any chance?

Great stuff mate, I like the flag with the rings in the middle +++

OK secret man, but if you want a better quality immage or different angle PM me what you want.

I'm going to have a go at the embossing tool as i've never played with that before.

No unfortunatly not.

I will refrain from any coarse, obvious comment about the Laird's ring......:p

Laird of the rings :rofl:

My preshisch

Can you make it so that I can adjust the transparency? Like you can with an object in Microsoft Office

I'm limited by exporting, in the modelling programe i can change the material and have quite a few options. i.e. the blue background i have changed to Blue (clear) and this gives transparency. but can only really be shown with something behind it. To export it so i could upload i had to print screen and paste into Piant and save as.
So i suppose no i don't know of a way i can get it to you so you can change it.

Hi Dezzy,
I use Solidworks, and am quite good with it, you could try saving as PDF, and then any tools that work with that can be used. Also, when saving the model as PDF there may well be an option check box at the lower end of the screen to save as 3DPDF, the image can then be panned, rotated and zoomed by the end user using left mouse and scroll wheel, though their functions are reversed!

Best regards,
Steve (Trophy 885)

Better with the real thing

Thanks Steve,

Yeah i can do that not 3D PDF but PDF anyhow and BMP, GIFF, JPEG, PNG and TIFF
