All the sculptures on my link were drawn in Solidworks and the rolled stainless pieces were all drawn 3D, exported to Rhino and turned into surfaces and flattened. Then finally re-imported to Solidworks and turned into dxf files for laser cutting. I'm too stingy to upgrade from 2007, bad enough buying a copy, crippling to upgrade it every year and have to re-learn!

I have SolidWorks 2007. The more I look at it the more I think I will have to go and do a course. I'm only just starting with it. I've had a look at the tutorials both in SolidWorks and on YouTube. But still very early days.
Cheers Steve...
