Computer design ideas needed

Being sorta low-tech in the shop, I use these for goblets and stuff...

Hello Tom,

I understand you not wanting to buy anything if possible; however, what you are wanting to do is best done with a program called "3D Design Pro". This program lets you create shapes and even import digital images as the starting point. You can print out your final design and take it to the shop. If you also have Woodturner PRO, you can import your design into it and create the plans for creating your design as a segmented vessel. I don't remember the web address exactly, but I believe that you can get there at this address: .

The program isn't very expensive, as I recall, but it is very powerful as a design tool to do things like you are talking about.

For some reason the link I posted doesn't seem to work, try this one:

Fred,

That was great. Thanks so much for your trouble. I downloaded it and will give it a try. Looks very much like what I'm interested in and the prices seem reasonable.

Saw your listing in the latest AAW Resource Directory. Thought they did a fantastic job with it this year. Much improved layout IMHO. Thought the writeups on Honorary Lifetime Members was cool.
