Basic geometry from LDD looks ok, even for the dish itself, cutouts ar in the pictures!

Note that the Dish geometry is different from the usual 2x2  Dish and this part has a stud2 in the center!

Yes, the LDD mesh is pretty close already. At first I thought the rim of the dish was a little too thick, but from your photos it looks OK.

Are those grooves just basically hollow half-cylinders? (And they are grooves, right—not ridges?)

Just inverted half-cylinders (with a spherical end), I think? Can't quite make it out from photos.

Also, is the top of the stud2 flush with the rim of the dish? Or is it actually recessed a bit, as in the LDD mesh?

(2020-10-08, 20:21)Gerald Lasser Wrote: Ah, yes, now I understood, a picture is worth a thousand words :-)

This is in my opinion a molding artifact. The hollow stud is terminated with a smaller hole (smaller than 4 LDU) and this extends a bit further into the part and interestingly around the corner. I guess as the plastic cooled down this was pulled "inside" I should have another one as well to verify how this looks in different parts.

So no, it is not a ridge, the part is as the LDD data shows, a normal bar diameter.

(2020-10-12, 5:54)N. W. Perry Wrote: Thoughts? Does the dish look rather too thick at all, especially through the cutouts?



I know there are some edges missing, and I need to fix the a-rings…and then figure out how to join the angled part of the bar.

On the plus side, we get four new hi-res ring primitives because of the 1/12th ratio of the spokes. 

(2020-10-12, 11:36)Gerald Lasser Wrote: I would make it thinner, the 2x2 dish available is around 2.4 LDU think, go in that direction

Here's how I constructed the handle, you can then basicall replace the "top" file.

The file includes a LDD overlay.

(2020-10-12, 15:13)N. W. Perry Wrote: Yes, I think it should have the same overall proportions as the 2x2 dish. The bowl just a bit thinner/shallower, and the collar around the shaft a bit taller. Overall height 12 LDU (it's now 12.5, so that's negligible).

And I think the stud2 should indeed be flush with the rim, otherwise you'd get collisions with the inner surface of the dish.
