Rhino: Work on Chess Boards, Chess Pieces and Pull Toys

On Thursday and Friday of last week I kind of threw chess pieces and pull toys at you and didn't give you much time to work on them.  Today, tomorrow and Wednesday I would like you to work on them.

I would also like you to feature them on a table of some sort with a floor and walls.  Remember that a large block makes the floor, another large block makes a wall, and another makes another wall.  The you can add a block as a table (or actually make a table) and shine some spotlights on it.

Add your checker/chess board to the table and adjust the lights if necessary.

Some specifics:
  • Chess Pieces:  Complete a full chess set (Pawn, Rook, Knight, Bishop, Queen and King)

 Pull Toys: 
    • Trace an object (animal, vehicle, etc.) and extrude it and cap it.
    • Create a block for the object to sit on
    • Add axles and wheels (I use cylinders)
      • I also use Filletedge on these to round them off
    • Draw a curve that will become the string or rope
      • Select the curve and type "Pipe"
        • Set the width of the first end (i.e. .25")
        • Set the width of the other end (i.e. .25")
        • Press ENTER
    • Add textures and bump maps
