We&#8217;re going add some of the lower structures, and on the drawing, there was a bevel on the planks, so I decided to make a bevel the polygon way. First, I select the edge where I want the bevel.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/4eyes.code66.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/meca2-01.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3831\" title=\"meca2-01\" src=\"http:\/\/4eyes.code66.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/meca2-01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"210\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then I use the bevel tool, which create a bevel by adding a new polygon. This is useful when you are going to use the model in a real time 3D environment, like a 3D game, where polygon count matters. Now I select one of the new edges, and move that so I get a nice angle of the bevel.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/4eyes.code66.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/meca2-02.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3830\" title=\"meca2-02\" src=\"http:\/\/4eyes.code66.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/meca2-02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"368\" height=\"156\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here you can see what it looks like from another view.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/4eyes.code66.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/meca2-03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3829\" title=\"meca2-03\" src=\"http:\/\/4eyes.code66.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/meca2-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"266\" height=\"259\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I now continue with adding the inner framework of the crane, according to the picture.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/4eyes.code66.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/meca2-04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3828\" title=\"meca2-04\" src=\"http:\/\/4eyes.code66.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/meca2-04.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"405\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here is the top items in place.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/4eyes.code66.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/meca2-05.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3827\" title=\"meca2-05\" src=\"http:\/\/4eyes.code66.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/meca2-05.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"304\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>And here is the snapshot from todays work.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/4eyes.code66.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/meca2-06.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3826\" title=\"meca2-06\" src=\"http:\/\/4eyes.code66.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/meca2-06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"393\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As you can see, the wooden framework is now in place.
