I'm trying to model a new set of plugs for my girlfriend. Unfortunately The modelling program I have (cinema 4D) doesnt really offer a solid way to get the dimensions perfect. I need help getting everything right.
netfabb is free program which can measure off a stl. or I can design your products to the micrometer if you likeFollow me on twitter http://twitter.com/mctrivia or my blog at http://4ddice.blogspot.com/
Have you looked at 123D? It should make accurate models and the software is free . I'd also suggest sketchup but from what I hear small models are a pain. And Blender may be too complex for what your trying to do.The Mad Moder
