this look so wonderful

Thanks Ryne Lee for your appreciation.

Ciao!

LOL :)

...I'd really like have the chance to Print in 3D some of these my "sculptures" to see how they appear physically.

But I haven't any kind of experience in 3D printing and I don't know if, for example, I can ask to the Printing service : "Hey, this is my 3D-Coat model in super high poly count, take it and print it and do a good job" or if I have to "decimate" it before sending to the printing service.
But I don't know how this decimation would alter the smoothness of the model, and so on...

Actually I have zero experience in 3D Printing. It's an unknown "place" for me :)

Maybe some of you here could teach me the "very basics steps" for sending a 3D model to a 3D Printing service, before I waste time and money :)

Thanks to everyone who will help me in this "endeavour" :)

Hi Michael.

P.S. ....maybe a new Thread called "Very basics of 3D Print a model made in Moi or 3D-Coat" could be created...

But I don't know if this new thread could be too "off topic" related to this Moi Forum.

Michael, what do you say, do you think it's a good idea to create here this new new thread ?
Is it possible ?

I stay tuned.

Never made this sort of thing but https://www.sculpteo.com/en/
This site is very well done! Of course I see the French one! ;)
And will give you all advices!

After 2.5 months backorder, Prusa i3 MK3 Kit, 3D printer, is leaving Prague, Czechia, for USA.

Hi Marco, sure that would be fine to create a thread for basics on 3D printing, please feel free to do so.

Hello Michael.

@You "; ...please feel free to do so..."

Thanks a lot.

ASAP I'm going to create this new thread.

Ciao!

I'm looking for a plugin that can create an actual 3 dimensional voronoi structure, not just a 2D voronoi pattern that is used with Flow or Extrude (revolve, sweep, loft etc.) The one I'm talking about as on the image.

Flow function is not sufficient ?
Your image is a particular honeycomb structure!

---

I think it's a voronoi structure and the points are spread in a space not only on a plane.

Hi Roni,

re:

I'm not aware of any MoI plug-in to do that, maybe you can find some other tool that would generate it as a polygon model file.

Seems like maybe Matlab, Rhino/Grasshopper (https://rhino.github.io/components/triangulation/voronoi3D.html) or http://math.lbl.gov/voro++/ might be good places to look.

Thank Michael, I'm going to have a look at it , I just rarely like to leave MOI3d , everything is very convenient there.

---

Seems you can make some 3D voronoi with only 2D ones ;)
i don't remember How I made that: a moment of inspiration! :D

---

Hi Roni,

I did with my friend Jotero lot's of 3D Voronoi Volume Mesh stuff in the past.

I am not aware of any tools for MoI that allows you 3D Voronoi points sampling
to obtain surfaces from them.

However, I attach a small tutorial (in German language) so that you can see
how one can do it with freely availabe Polygon Mesh Tools.

Please Note: the mentioned GTKRemesher, for obtaining excellent triangular
meshes is no longer available, you need to search the web to obtain a similar tools.

Best regards
Stefan

Another option would be to try to get the tool "GEEX",
which was once available from a French researcher in
this field. GEEX must be compiled and runs only under
Windows.

Regards
Stefan

---

Does the Jotero forum always existing ?

---

Just find this free tool online :)
Result is in PLY so use MeshLab for convert it !:
https://www.voronator.com

---

as I remember also Blender can make 3D Voronoi.
