Thank you Norbert!
When you look at the comments here, it will always come down to the same tools.
I talked about this with my surfacing team yesterday, and we came to the same conclusions, because that is how Class-A surfacing works. There is no secret to it. The workflow is always:
- Measure
- Model
- Match
- Measure again
It is exactly what a machinist would do operating a lathe. And the more precise your parts needs to be, the more you need to measure.
This is why those tools are so important.
Deviation analysis is basically your calipers and View Scaling is your straight edge.
In Class-A surfacing that the holy trinity.
- Analysis tools
- Control point modelling
- MatchSrf
And no matter who you ask, the answer will always the same tools. Just like if you ask a machinist how he gets his parts so precise.
