 | | Reverse torus naming convention
|

I have endorsed the Primitive Generator's naming convention for "reverse ratio" tori (toruses) with a minor update to the Primtives Reference ((URL) of the form r{ff}o{rrrr}.dat represent the outer section of a torus where the minor radius is (...)

(...) There is no way to get your shape using primitives, it would require non-linear transformations. So, as mentionned by Michael, the best way is to use Coverer. You can nonetheless get a similar (but quite different) shape using shearing as (...) (15 years ago, 15-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

Is this what you had in mind? (...) Basicly changing any of the non zero coordinates will scale along the coresponding axis. You can also accomplish shearing by replacing any of the zero's with a different number. (15 years ago, 14-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

(...) AFAIK there is no solution with primitives in this case. I would suggest use one of the tools from Philo ((URL) to fill the space between those 4-4edge.dat cu mikeheide (15 years ago, 15-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

Well, it's my second thread today, but how would you go to "stretch" a cylinder, like a cone, but only in Y-axis, not X-axis? I've again attached a dat file to show what I mean. Basically I'd need a cylinder that'd fit those two 4-4edge.dat:s, any (...) (15 years ago, 14-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
