Here some beauty shots of my (2nd) attempt and probably best My group chose to do the Custom tank for a CB550: Andrew Wallace The Project can be divided into 3 stages Stage 1: Creating the CAD model Stage 2: Creating the pattern Stage 3: Creating the skin of the fuel tank ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stage 1: Creating the CAD Model When opening the model without grasshopper in rhino, the model would not work and would look like this.
