I suspect you made a mirror copy, yes?

Are you using Blender?]]> WiKKiDWidgets 2009-08-27T17:05:34-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=6095&th=1291#msg_6095 this time it was mirrored the same way


i use 3dsmax7]]> Jettuh 2009-08-27T17:21:50-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=6098&th=1291#msg_6098 Usually shapeways corrects inverted models, apparantly not always.

And not to spam my own work :

But the max pricing tool will detect any inverted volumes.

got the good results now, but the shapeways price on the website says: 23.87,,, and the old version of virtox i use,, where the old price is $1.68 for WSF, it says my object is $23.58.

i don't want to say i have a diffrence of about 30cents, but that was virtox his old calculator, with the price of $1.68 for the WSF,,,

so the price for the shapeways objects after the new discount (see shapeways newsletter) is not on yet?
cause that would mean the objects should be cheaper?]]> Jettuh 2009-08-29T15:42:44-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=6246&th=1291#msg_6246
test1: A 10x10x10 mm cube. Volume is obviously 1 cubic cm. Price is $ 3.57. Lets call this the unit price.

test2: A 10x10x10 mm cube with a 6x6x6 inverted cube inside. The volume is 0.784 cubic cm. (1 - 0.6 x 0.6 x 0.6.) The price is 89.1% of the unit price. Do note that I did not put holes in the sides, so the excess material would be trapped and shipped.

test3: Here it really comes. This model resembles my model more and has all room to let excess material out. A 10x10x10 mm cube consisting only of its ribs in 2 mm. The volume is 0.352 cubic cm. (8 x 0.2 x 0.2 x 0.2 + 12 x 0.2 x 0.2 x 0.6.) The price however still sticks at 67.8% of the unit price. (The model is one manifold volume, no overlaps.)]]> jvo 2009-09-02T21:44:05-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=6247&th=1291#msg_6247 gibell 2009-09-02T21:48:04-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=6248&th=1291#msg_6248 ]]> jvo 2009-09-02T21:53:22-00:00
