Wave Press Tool

This tip and trick was included at the User Group Meeting in 2016 held in the UK (Vectric Headquarters, Alcester, Warwickshire) and US ( Orlando, Florida).

In this example we’ll create a two part press tool to form heated Solid Surface material into a wave shape for use in a candle holder. We’ll look to use vector offsetting at the drawing stage to create the space for the material so the tool has space for the material to be formed correctly. Aspire is required to complete this example as the wave shape needs to be modeled.
