Video tutorial:
Step 1: Load half joints model
The model is highly customizable, you can adjust the model structure as you like. The purpose of this step is that you will have a standard size and structure to prepare for the next step to create a curve for the shelf. Adjustable parameters of the model
- Resize height, width, depth
- Change the depth of the mount, because the cut is curved, adjust the depth to 2/3 so that the curve does not cut through the mount.
- Hide 4 outer borders
- Change board thickness
- Change the number of panels horizontally and vertically
Step 2: Manually create curves
- Select 3dshouse plugin’s
- Clean Dynamic tool click model to remove the dynamic feature, weld the panels together. Clean Dynamic is required before manual fix.
