The machine shop in using wants an IGES file. For those of you who've used bender. I have a 21" x 16" grid of thicknesses of my backrest for every inch both horizontally and vertically. What would you suggest is the best procedure to come up with a 3-D model of the backrest?
1. Place a point with x, y and z values for each data-point? 2. For each row of points make a horizontal line, or splines? 3. For all the splines make a surface, interpolating the points in between each spline? 4. Create a 3-D model from the surface and thickness?
