Rhino + Nico + Maxwell = State of the art in engineering

I agree with 100%.

Great. I'm really looking forward to seeing the your final result.

Nice looking threaded screws, but i'm curious to what approach you
used to model them ? i tried various methods but non of them looked
good enough to be used.

Hi Max,

I will make an A to Z tutorial for you and put it on line Tomorow

Indeed it's from the old TV series "Space 1999" the ships name is Eagle lander.

That's the one I thought... wow, I'd forgot about this one...

It's me or the leftmost screw looks like a cylinder???? This is what picked my eyes...

it's just you

Btw, the reason that it looks like a cylinder is because the edge on the thread is very sharp

Hi all, here is a totally revised version of the Yoke head, build it up from scratch to fit the original Boeing wheel.
As you can see the top has a bit of a pointed shape now for trim purposes, hope you like it

prima dona Nico... really great modeling... and rendering... hehe..

is it what the real stuff looks like..? I guess so... !

[NicoR44]

Thanks Glebe

Thanks Hervé, yes it's the Column Head of the Boeing 737 yoke, here is a reference picture, it is going to be exactly like this:

Here is another one, playing a bit with materials

top notch modeling Nico we want to see the entire plane
