    3D help needed

    Good evening all.

    I have a curved rafter drawn in Corel X4. I need to be able to convert it to 3d and then make a change to it. In theory I think I could extrude the shape and then take a 45 degree slice. I tried Sketchup but can get the file into a format that Sketchup will work with.

    I'd appreciate any and all advice.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi fabcov.

    Will a dwg file work? Corel's dxf exports don't work too well.

    Hi fabconv

    There are actually 2 files that I need done. Here they are in dwg format. I have also attached a file of the top view of how the parts fit together. I already have all the parts that are vertical or horizontal, I just need the longer angled one.

    Thanks!

    Hi fabconv.

    2d is fine if that's possible.
