A bit like those things you see that have a bunch of nails through a board that you can press into a shape.

Cheers

O.K. Fred.
Think i get it now. So you must have had a birdseye view and side on view so when put together on CAD it created a 3d image?

Thanks





I don't want to break it, just see how far it will bend.

I wonder how much it would cost to just have a model 3d-scanned. We've got them at work and they'll scan full-size cars but I'm not entirely sure anyone will let me near it!
