need pattern help.

[jaustin]

I am trying to make an arrow head pattern.
I am trying to figure out how to make the edges taper more like this one in the picture.

How would I do it or what would i need to search to figure out how to do it?

I plan on using walnut and maple glued to together to the thickness, just need to find out how I can get the edge effect into the pattern.


Thanks for any help

That is a job for the new sweep feature.

Bergerud it looks very good in demo mode. Nice job.

That is pretty cool.
Thanks for the help on that, now I need to figure out what sweep is and how much it is to buy.

Thanks

Looks like i won't be purchasing if i am looking at it correctly, $200 for the Pattern Modeling Suite (3D Advanced)

is there anyway to acheive the same effect without the extra software?

John, It seems alot to look at, but a very useful tool. When you can it's worth it.

I played around some more with the arrowhead and made it into a pattern. Unfortunatly you cannot edit it now that it is a pattern.

Thanks,
looks great.

is there anyway you could smooth the center out i am making a bow rack and will need a smooth area to mount the antler rack.

something like this.



Thanks
