    Hi Chris,
    I worked through the fork tutorial and everything was fine until I applied thickness to the fork. What happens is I get several spikes shooting out from a few areas of the fork. I’ve had this happen before, any ideas as to what is happening? I’m using Strata 7.5 but this also has happened with 7.0.

    Thanks,

    Make sure all the polygons are facing in the same direction by using the Unify function. If you want to send the model to me I can also examine it. mrchristophersea (at) mac (dot) com
