Dalboris show us how to create a ring body with the help of the Manifold tool

Watch the video - Divx

Beautiful in its simplicity Dalboris. I have not used Nurbs since I stopped using Realsoft3d but seeing the ease of surface construction again makes me want Amapi Pro.

Thanks Grendel

but Thomas... I don't use the manifold tool at all !

the steps are :

1) create a curve
2) do a symetry of this curve
3) weld them
4) do a new symetry
5) do a ruled surface between the two curve
6) close
7) create a circle
8) extrude it
9) do a boolean
10) and to finish a little chamfer

but I agree with you... it should be better if I had done a manifold instead of the steps 1 to 6. It's an error from my part...

Oups, sorry, I didn't remember the video itself.. it's because I know AB, modeled it with a Manifold. Thanks Amapi, two way for the same model.. then, choose your way !
