018 DA3D Design & Model a Plasma Cutting Table Part 4
With the components of the Plasma Tables steel frame sized and assembled in Parts 1, 2 and 3 of this project we now move on to cutting the location slots for the top slats of the table and then sizing the top slats.
This tutorial uses the solidify modifier, array modifier and the boolean modifier and includes an explanation of the boolean modifier for anyone who hasn't used it before.
This free video tutorial is recorded using Blender 3 and covers: Blender Basics, Blender Modelling, Mechanical Modelling, Precision Modelling, Product Design. Blender Tools, Blender Training and much more.
If you are interested in using a library of steel profiles, but don't want to spend the countless hours modelling each individual component, the asset library is available. The steel stock library I use containing 135 different steel sections and is shown in video 014, is available from my gumroad site for a small fee: https://app.gumroad.com/robertburke3d
