Re: Dash collection for a rotary indexer

Glad to see that all are enjoying my typo. :) I posted the question from my phone. I like to use spech to text, I hate typing. I've had some interesting and embarassing translations with the speech to text. Gotta proof read.

Re: Modelling question

Thanks, gentlemen. I appreciate the help. I'm very early in the project, not sure when I'll get to the lanterns. I just wanted to figure out how to make that part.

Re: Modelling question

I'm not sure what this part is called. That would be a carriage lantern. A hold-over from... umm... carriages. :D Good to know. My question now is how do I model the cube in the middle.
