Art Nouveau Frame 3D Modeling

This video shows how to model and machine an Art-Nouveau style frame. It uses both the Two Rail Sweep and also the Extrude and Weave functions in Aspire. For the inner frame we examine some tips and tricks for making smooth corners and overlapping edges. Then for the outer elements we take components created in another session of the software and extrude them along the paths of the design vectors while at the same time weaving the shapes together. During this process we look at an advanced technique to weave different components using the same set of vectors. Finally the finished part has toolpaths created to cut it on the CNC.
