I should send you the plan for my corner computer desk, if I can find it.
Rhino helped me lay out all the little pieces on sheets of melamine-covered
particle board for cutting. Of course that's a common function today.

One thing that would interest people here, particularly Richard, I would
think, is Rhino's ability to "unroll" curved shapes into their flat
equivalent for cutting from sheet materials. It's handy for ductwork, I
suppose, but I want to try it with chine-type plywood boat designs.

That's one thing I can't do )automatically).

I have to do it the same way one would do it on paper.

But it's not all that hard.
