so, as i posted earlier this year, i'm looking for a rhino trophy head sliceform.
I coudn't find any so i gave it a try on my own (with much help from a friend).
i cut the model from 4.5 mm cardboard.
and it is not looking good enough. the whole model is a bit disfigured.
does anyone like to give it a shoot and try to modify my sketch?
please advise

yotam Attached files exploded.dxf (2.7 MB)Â

 

does anybody working on this one?

 

Yotam, why don't you import the dxf file into SU? It's easy if you try it out.

 

i am trying it but still doesn't look good enough

 

I imported the file (exploded.dxf) in SU and mounted parts:

Dear Mark and Trish

I do thank you for this wonderful content you make available on the Internet.
I'm a happy user of Phlatscript on my machine, I'm trying to make a Portuguese version of this script, I lack knowledge and time, one day I end ...

What is possible, I also make available to colleagues in the forum.

A big hug ...

 

marcomartim, I have never done a version in another language. But I think this is how it is done. You can test, if it works.

hey guys great job. does anybody working on this (to make it actualy look like rhino)?

 

Grateful for the tips.
I use SU in English or Portuguese without problems, sorry because I was not more specific, the translation of menus and buttons I had also done, my biggest difficulty lies in the system of measures.
I work very well with the imperial system, which would be more convenient to have also the international system in milliliters.
I changed some things in the configuration window, but still contains some bugs.
The biggest problem is the output of Gcode, the coordinates are always in inches.
Most of the original designs we use are listed in millimeters, if the output, was also in millimeters, would be very easy to understand, to make any corrections directly on Gcode.
Another problem with the settings of the pieces created by other programs in millimeters. Everything is easier with only one sistem.
Moreover, many people in various parts of the world does not understand the system of imperial measures (adopted in only Burma, Liberia, and the United States)

A big hug.

 

Mark and Trish

I am grateful to all.
I am encouraging my colleagues at another forum CNC, which I participate, and adopt the Sketchup and Phlascript.

Big hugs.

 

Dear yotamkaufman;

As reported by MP, I'm working on it, but I can not indicate when it will end.

Would be easier to make this work if you (or other colleague) make available the plane figures (gif, jpg, pdf) in the form that you think like a rhinoceros (despite always being a rhinoceros stylized).

I've done one more rhino (I think it was worse than the previous one) we'll see what happens in the end.

Have a little patience one day ends ....

hugs

 

And in Canada. That makes it the whole continent of North America. A WHOLE CONTINENT!!!

Since it was written in that continent, it was assumed to be used only by people who live in this continent (OK, maybe England can join ).

Om a more serious note, we talked here about the problem before and I think it will be addressed in one of the upgrades in the future.

 

Excuse me, was not a criticism, just an observation, as the data I have.

Canada, is also a signatory of the international system of measures, however, due to proximity and dependence on the U.S. economy and other factors, I believe that in practice can adopt a hybrid system, but I can not say because I know the local reality .
A 35 years ago, while studying at the Technical College, also in Brazil there was a similar situation.

About geography, I suggest you consider Mexico in North America

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_America

About where a product will be used, this old paradigm is overcome in the era of internet and integrated world economy. indeed many local and traditional products you use, came from China.

Do not misunderstand me, I repeat, is not a criticism, due to poor communication (online translator), and difficulty understanding online.

I mentioned a fact (perhaps inaccurately, sorry), the Phlatscript is a gem, with the evolution could be used in CNC world (and worldwide) with great success in various types of machines.

A big hug.

 

marcomartim, have you seen this? This person modified the phlatscript to output metric, but it's for older versions. It would be useful for study. http://iwr.ru.ac.za/~david/phlat/

Thanks for the nomination, I already knew, very good, but certainly this information will be helpful to another person.
I need to use the newer version because I need to drill holes, use the Phalatscript shallow holes, deeper holes using the wizard Mach3, or edit the gcode on hand.

I apologize to yotamkaufman colleague, for polluting your topic, now I'm concentrating on Rhino

Thank you all.

 

Mark, I checked when marcomartim mentioned the problem. The phlatscript still outputs in inches, when SU is set to metric units. -Kwok
