Construction drawings from Subdivision


Moth

Recommended Posts

I have finally gained enough control with the subdivision tool to create the forms I want. Now I am trying to think about how best to 'deconstruct' that object into a drawing set to allow them to be constructed. Obviously I could just take a bunch of sections through it, but I'm wondering if there is something I'm missing.

- Does anyone have a process they have found successful?

Thanks.

It really depends on how it will be built.

 

2d section Contours are ideal if you're going to 2d CNC.

Jigsaw it and Export as STL for 3d Print

That is a neat tool that Ive never used. I see so many referencing 2d CNC. and STL. Can STL be converted to and SVG? What is the file format that you use for exporting 2D CNC?
