[@WShep]

@@PJChenJewelryDesign You are most welcome, I've been using Rhino occasionally since the first beta. Over the years at my prior place of employment, we used it for many jobs. I could always get by but never really knew the advanced functions. Since my kid left for college I've had a lot of time on my hands so I took a few courses on udemy and have finally really been getting into the meat of Rhino. I recently discovered your tutorials and they have been a great supplement to burning these advanced techniques into my brain. Thanks so much for making them available to us.

[@nattapaspranishautra7349]

i did something like this but it's a pendant. I think plot the dot on the surface and using plug in to draw curve on surface will allow to control much more.

[@dianamkrtchyan1467]

Thank you

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

You're welcome

[@darshanaacha6469]

Another great video. thank you so much. It would be amazing if you do a rendering based video.

very nice triks leaving small space on base surface to create small planar hole instead of nasty singularity! Also explode-rejoin to fix naked edge, clever!

Hi Pj you really are the best , got a question does rhino gold 7 come with the jewelry and gem tab ? Thanks

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

RhinoGold is no longer available, I believe. I think now it is call MatrixGold.

[@kungfurabbit8594]

PJ, great video. i have some challenges trying to copy your explode move at 13:46. After exploding and joining the surfaces, there is still an edge in the middle along the Z axis. Can you suggest what should I do?

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

Maybe the edges weren't aligned.

[@kungfurabbit8594]

@@PJChenJewelryDesign Thank you for the response. I have another question. At 6:15 in the video, you adjusted(enlarged) the UV curve and used that as the boundary to place all the small units. The total length of all the small units will be longer than the original UV curve(created from the volume) in Y direction. Will that create an overlapping condition at the seam?

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

@@kungfurabbit8594 That will stretch the objects. If you trim at the correct place. it should not be overlap.

Bliss y’all, I was trying to rebuild the square 5,5, 3,3 and it would change and how to I select the middle to drag the center outward

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

turn on the control points to drag the point.

[@mariamavetisyan3584]

PJ how long have you been modeling in Rhino and Matrix?

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

20+ years

[@mariamavetisyan3584]

Wow!!!!😇😇Is it normal that it's about 6 months what I started modeling but I can't modeling everything, only simple and sometimes middle difficulty jewelry?

[@adargham11]

Why did you decide to use sweep 2 instead of curve network to make the ring? It seems much easier, but on a previous video you made a signet ring using the curve network tool.

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

You can do either way, Just want to show various techniques possible in different videos for fans to pick.

[@mrinmoysorkhel1753]

how can i move a locked surface with points on in rhino 5 ,plz tell me,thanks

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

you have to unlocked it by right click on lock icon.

[@khanmutt]

I loved the simplicity of this tutorial. I did it many times but it is always giving me the same mistake. Where the seam is always remain open, others capped easily. I changed the base surface to a slightly larger, exploded it and joined. What the problem can be? I am advanced on rhino :)

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

when you flow along surface, is the "rigid" on or off?

[@khanmutt]

rigid no, i tried also to flow the uv object both joined and seperated pieces. @@PJChenJewelryDesign

[@suryakonijeti]

my pc got 32gb ram, octa-core processor, but it still takes a lot of time for the rhino to transfer the textures? what should be the fix?

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

It really depends on how detail of the texture, what other program you are running while you are using Rhino. my laptop has 16GB RAM, and it has been working fine for both Rhino, adobe and keyshot running at the same time.

[@kkkk139]

I tried to do but to me some things have wrongs Like, the texture, when I did the command rebuild and I pull the point to up, the side of the square follow the central point. But rest went well. could you help me in it?

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

No so sure unless see the model. You can email it to [e-mail], I can take a look for you. write me a short description on where has issue.

[@kkkk139]

​@@PJChenJewelryDesign thank you, I did do that. but I think it not is right. But I will send to you!!

[@arabiclearner711]

Please help PJ, everytime after flowing the surface my holes at the top and bottom won’t form planar surface , says the curves are not planar and I can’t get it

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

I cannot tell the issue without seeing the model. You can email me at [e-mail] with short description

[@aanagasin]

I made it like your video tips but I can not closed the open surface for the ring with tips explode and re-join.

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

Hi aanaga sin, make sure surfaces on both side of edge are perfectly align before you flow. If it doesn't work. you can email your model to my email at [e-mail] I will take a look for you.

[@aanagasin]

@@PJChenJewelryDesign I did it again but It has been an closed polysurfeace now, well done. I made mistake as you said my surface on the side of edges not perfectly before. Thank you so much for the trick and tips Guru PJ Chen. Good Job.
