I was able to create a model for a base for a display unit at the museum where I work as a fabricator. The .dxf export feature let me send the part files to a local CNC router shop who milled the parts. Assembly started yesterday, and the unit will be completed with a veneer wrap next week.

That’s really cool. Why the circular holes in the cut outs?
Thank Jared. Cutouts were for
- Weight reduction
- Further assembly to fasten top to this base.
Here it is all ready to ship to an exhibition.
I used S3D for the crate layout as well.

Thats super neat! Thanks for sharing 
That is so good and similar to a display I’m working on for an exhibition using the same materials. We used vector works for it though but I am going to have a go at using shapr3d to recreate it.

How are you attaching the segments to the centre post?
Hi Bill
Haven’t got to that yet - this was part of a suite of things that were developed for visualisation. The next stage is to develop them with the fabricator. I will share the solution when it comes.
Best wishes
Steve
