    yes added to my Stezza folder

    BTW I once made a boneless chain using IK ball joints with limits, each chain link having the hotpoint one end and the next link parented to and pivoting from the other side

    no idea where I saved it but another option for rigid things you might want to try enlightened

    +1 yes

    Great stuff! Love the Duck Dodgers and the rest of the crew, even K-9. I have to ask, though, is that a Lost in Space lander back there? I can't quite see enough of it.

    I am impressed by those Lost In SPace models.  Modelled in Carrara I presume ?

    In all honesty, what would be the best way to master modelling in Carrara today ?  There seem to be so few tutorials on how to get good and advanced with Carrara ?

    mmoir and PhilW had some top tutes.

    mmoir unfortunately had his shop closed by DAZ.

    PhilW's tutes are available at O'Reilly - can recommend PhilW's Advanced Carrara Techniques

    There are also quite a few Youtube vids - https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=modeling+in+carrara+software

    yep, all modelled in Carrara starting from a humble cube.

    I never used tutorials apart from watching some interesting youTube videos every now and then. I just dove in and worked it out over time and am still learning. Started with "easy models" then just added more and more but time wasn't a factor for me in learning. Just a hobby. heart

    I like staring through the window of a front loading washing machine, and just watching it go. I miss the old ones that had lots more water.

    I was given a front loading washing machine by my brother a fortnight ago

    My toploader stopped spinning so was lugging sloppy clothes, towels and sheets to the clothesline to drip dry which gets old pretty quickly 

    found my self reminising about mum's old mangle

    it is quite fascinating to watch

    I think LeatherGryphon has lost his way to the complaint thread again cheeky

    not this old, was electric but OMG a 3D model of this would be cool, I bet Stezza could make one

    challenge accepted.... dunno how acurate it is but hey.... it's wacky and from a cube laugh 

    it's in the zip file so your runtimes can be well rinsed angel

    So cool! I've never used or seen a ringer washer that old, fascinating... and as always, amazing that you could whip one up so quickly and so well. 

    It's a lot like watching a magic show.

    those renders have come out pretty cool yes

    I was thinking of having the seperate parts but thought nah... gives you Carrarians something to work on wink

    split model and centre the hotpoint on each bit works quite well but it loses the materials, however I needed to replace them with Octane ones anyway

    the easiest way I found is to duplicate it the amount of parts you want

    like: 6 times for each roller top n bottom ( 2 ), cog pair (2), springs and wheel.

    then edit each one and delete the mesh you don't want then rename the edited model to the part. It keeps it's materials. wink

    Then add them to an animation group and rename that.

    note: you may need to recrease the frame after the edit
