Blender Modeling

Note in the 'curve_building' and 'church blender' be sure to CTRL-J join the 2 curves in object mode before you ALT-C convert to mesh

Note: many of these files may be found at Filefront,

Details on these files are Here

Screenshot of some items are Here

Update Jan 2009 The manual is new to me and actually makes sense! TIP: get Kompozer from kompozer.net, you can copy/paste their awful web pages into it and make it bigger before you print. Don't know why anyone would put white type on black, stupendous eye strain, didn't they ever use DOS?
