I am trying to create a simple crown. I would like for triangles with circles at the top to come up and repeat along a cylindrical crown shape. For some reason I just can’t think of how to do it! Here is progress so far, any ideas would be appreciated. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/shapr3d/original/2X/f/fbd7194ad182658db1def82ce41a0e76c03f2a9b.jpeg) ---

Need to do a little math to figure out how many points… ---

Thank you so much! I don’t think I would have ever come up with that. I seem to do better with non-cylindrical bodies I guess. Here is my base…still have to decorate and do some cut outs. Thanks again! ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/shapr3d/original/2X/0/0620709402bc6023a8fba1d6a8e2ada51cc531c0.jpeg) Heather ---

I ended up going with the inverse point down triangles for the cut outs to avoid som overlapping edges and changed it quite a bit, but here is the test print finished version. Thank you again! ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/shapr3d/original/2X/2/2a7266e8f9310eb34dbbb29e4d97d6951ed2b02a.jpeg) ---

Pay if forward. 🙂
