Hi.

Can anyone point me in the direction where I can learn out to transfer the face sections of a boat hull onto a sheet, so that I can have it laser cut out on plywood? As shown in the attached picture.

Kind regards, Andrew

Hey @@andybro,

Unfortunately, it's not possible to flatten a curved body in F360. There is only one plugin that can do that, but it's not cheap.

sheet metal it's another option, but it has many limitations!

But if you have flat surfaces, then there is a free add-on that can help you with that.

Cheers.

I found a tutorial on YouTube that seems to show that this can be done using MeshMixer by AutoDesk, which is free to download and use. I haven't tried it yet but will report back if I have any success.
