I tried to do something to help a friend, and now I'm in over my head. My friend Matt asked me to print something for him. I himmed and hawwed about it then agreed to take it on when I found the part on thingiverse as a customizable file, thinking it would be an easy job.
Then I downloaded the file, I have a 3dm (rhino) and an STL file. Little googling tells me I can edit a 3dm in Autocad, so I imported the file and promptly realized I have absolutely zero idea how to make the changes I want to make. So I took a chance and loaded into Tinkercad, and get a solid object I can't do anything with.
The object in question is a WorkSharp knife sharpening template. The model I have is for a 40 degree edge, it would be preferred to be a 30 degree edge. Seems simple enough right? I thought I could just select the points and adjust the angle, but it seems editing 3d models is a bit different than 2d, and I don't know what to do.
If someone could be so inclined to edit the file for me, I'd be happy to print some stuff for you or send out some cookies or something. On the other hand, if there is a video or ebook available about modifying existing models, I'd be happy to learn how to do it so I don't have to go begging around the internet when I need something more advanced than download and print made. I spent most of the night fighting through SEO ranked webpages trying to sell me autocad ebooks and swearing at my actual AutoCad 2005 book for being so different from the AutoCad 2015 I currently own.
This is the file on Thingiverse a bit less information there and I'd hope, just "I included the original model so you can make it for other angles"
