Though the plans are in metric, the boat is listed at 11’11". …I love my MAC until such times as these… How does one call up ‘entity info’ or other parameter to monitor and specify that input?.Does the Catmull spline tool, in fact, create curves from straight line segments?.Reminding the reader that my newbie capacity remains in effect: As I zoom in to study these straight line segments, I can detect them relatively quickly in the curve of the bulkhead (used Fredo6 ‘Bezier curve’ plug-in), and, yet, the curve(s) of the boat’s bottom piece (using Fredo6’s ‘Catmull Spline’ plug-in) shows no apparent straight line segments, even at higher zoom rates. So, here I am again.Īs I consider fair curves and smooth gcode tool paths, it occurs to me that the concept of a “fair curve” in Sketchup is theoretical and that curve “fairness” is relative to the number of straight line segments which can be specified. Until now, a confluence of pandemic and other life factors preceding it forestalled my efforts to progress in converting paper sailing dinghy plans to digital with the desired end to convert them to gcode for the purposes of cutting out boat components on a Maker Made M2 CNC.
