im having trouble in rhino, shapeways is saying my models normals are inverted and as far as i can see it's not? can any one help?
Hi scott-tweeddale, I took a look at your model. It had a lot of inverted normals. I took the liberty to fix it for you :laughing: Just upload it , order it and it's yours :nod: Cheers, Ralph
Hi Scot, I used the fixed wizard and removed all the inverted normals, and some bad shells. That's all Cheers, Ralph
Hi Ralph, I saw you fixed some files with magics. Could you also fixe the dragonnecklace? How did you fix the tank without destroying it? Could you show the method with some screenprints? Greetings AO
Hi I'm still having problems working out normals in Rhino and i was wondering if it was possible for you to have a look at these files for me as well? Any further help would be much appreciated Thanks Scott
Hi Scott, not sure, but you're probably using the wrong mesh settings out of rhino. I just downloaded your lens2 and lens3 models, They both contain open meshes which is not good for 3D printing If you send the rhino model, I can see if it is a problem with the mesh settings or with the model itself, it could well be a combination of both. I guess that's the case, because lens2 had interfering mesh faces as well. Cheers, Gijs
Hi Thanks to everyone for their help, i've managed to sort it out and order it all, i had to re make it froms scratch Thanks to everyone for help
Hi Scott, I am glad you succeeded to upload your models! Hi AO, Just send the model to service@shapeways.com and we will take a look at it There is an Shrinkwrap option in Magics, which takes care of this. I will make time for this next week. Maybe i can make a simple tutorial and put in on the support section Cheers, Ralph
Ralph, The dragonnecklace is not mine but from murderslastcrow If I remember well. I'm looking forward to your tutorial. Cheers AO
