Model of a boulder.

[Thee Rickster ™]

I had a Deer skull and antlers, scanned and

srufaced and casted them for a customer.

Now they need something to mount it to rather then their clothing display racks.

 

We were going to cast a tree stump, but that

would be time consuming and have decided on a boulder.

 

It would be hollowed out using a slide on the bottom and open left to right as to also model in and cast a type of block lettering on each cavity.

 

Were not looking for anything to fancy but unique that's for sure.

 

Does any one know where i could get such a model to start with?

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

 

Cheers

Maybe someone with a Faro laser scaner could scan a rock for you that could be scaled up? The place I left two months ago was going to buy one. I would have been happy to do it for you.

htm01, that one is too crazy.

 

I have searched for a plan old rock(igs or whatever)

and either there is none out there or I can't search very well. lol

Rickster, try looking at slate roofing tiles. They have all kinds of rocklike patterns.

I don't have a model of a boulder but I could drive up to Boulder and take a picture.

 

(Sorry Rickster, I couldn't resist.)

we can use.

 

any help would greatly be appreciated (and rewarded)

Rickster,

I don't know much about mold work and I'm not sure if I understand exactly what you’re looking for, but I threw together a quick kind of rock shape. I'm thinking you might be able to use it as a tool to subtract out whatever you need for your mold. If the shape isn't what you’re looking for I can tweak it any way that you would like or if you have a picture of a stone that you like I can try to make something similar.

I tried to upload the file to the FTP but I got the access denied error, so if you want it, I guess I would have to email it to you.

Hi Chuck, I would like to check it out.

I have a few things to work with and need more options.

 

You can email it to me at:
