In Response To: Re: S&G: Delftship panel shape development (David Reekie)

: Sorry for going quiet for a couple of days, 17 hour days at work :-(

: Henk is right that I'm discussing with Martijn, who has shown me how to
: highlight developability issues on the main views of the models even when
: no such issues show up on the panel development view - which they don't,
: with resolution set to high. (At very high there is a tiny patch
: highlighted on that view).

: So Delftship is clear that the design is not *perfectly* developable.
: However, the areas it highlights on my model just don't account for the
: problems I actually saw. The highlighing suggests the side panels are the
: main problem. Setting up stations and taking measurements shows very
: clearly that in real life they are *not* a significant problem: they
: produce a shape very lose to that designed. The bottom panels were the
: problem, in areas Delftship did not highlight.

: However, see my other reply to the ToniV and Mike Allen thread, whre there
: are som very interesting results that to my mind seem a lot better
: explanation of what's going on.

: Again, I am not trying, to 'knock' Delftship at all, just sharing and
: discussing experiences so others don' make the same mistakes I have.

Btw, just because a panel is developable and in theory could be built with a sheet product like plywood, doesn't mean it can relistically be built. You might have to go to 1/16" bending plywood to make the bends and even then might have to steam it. Easier to strip those sections, at least to me.
