Rhino: Funky Coffee Table

Today we will be using the "Extrude" command to turn a line/curve into a 3D shape -- in this case, a "ribbon". Next we will "Cap" the holes to make it a "solid shape". Then we will use truncated cones to create legs for the table.

The next piece of the project is to put some items on the table -- perhaps a coffee mug, a plate, a vase, etc.

Finally, create a floor under the table and put a spotlight (or 2 or 3) on your table.

Note: If you go to the "Projects in Computers" folder on the "L: Drive" you will be able to view the 3D Graphics folder which has TONS of textures, bump maps, models, etc. Check them out.
