Creating a chase

Hi all

   I am asking for your help because I can't create a chasing. It is an oval shape that repeats in a circular manner on a rounded shape. 

    I tried by making the oval shape and then the "projected curve" function except that I can't give it volume...  

     Hoping that my explanations are clear. I use Solidworks

 

 

   Maxence.

Can you post a larger image

to fully understand the problem 

Yes, no worries.

It's a small decoration it is: 2.5 x0 .8 mm

 

Thank you for your help. 

Hello

It looks more like embossing, than chiseling, right?

   It's a drawing in brass, so I think we're on a chasing... but I could be wrong...  

Thank you  

What is the purpose 

That's why Private Pro?

I think that an appearance pose will be less greedy

If you really want to create this part in real 3D

you're going to have a Max of jobs

but it is possible 

I hope you have a good pc with enough ram :-)

It's for professional purposes. The part is existing and needs to be digitized. 

Then I have to create a rendering, so by putting an appearance, I can't see myself doing a good rendering afterwards...  

I don't necessarily have a competition PC. 

gt22 you have an idea on the subject for a real 3D

Maxence

visually according to me what I see on your image attached the 2nd

It gives the impression of a wicker basket type weaving

with the difficulty since the base and the top are not the same section 

the strands must also be different so diff section

all this to arrive at a visual that holds up

Here is a test to optimize but it's for the principle

and believe me I spent a good time there

and you need a PC that runs ;-)

@ Zozo thank you

but it is true as you know

 I like to make  pieces that are out of the ordinary 

It allows you to know if I'm still able to

with the few neurons I have left and that still work ;-)

duplicate?????????????

Re 

gt22 the result on your part is very close to what I want to get? 

How did you do it? How long did it take you? 

Hoping that my pc will hold the shock. 

Thank you for the time you took to provide an answer. 

You can see the end result

thank you @+

GT22 yes I can see the image but how did you do it? 

I also found the winding function while searching. 

 

 

The winding function only works on  a cylindrical surface if I'm not mistaken.

to make your piece

I made ellipse-shaped smooths of different sizes and cross-sections

on X plane placed proportionally on a guide curve

and after   x repetitions

See Creation Tree on attached image

you know everything

Houlala, yes, it's a painstaking job but the result is there. Thank you for this answer! 

As for the winding function, it works on this type of shape but with a much smaller result. 

    Thank you, I think the subject is solved.  :)

There are surely other solutions to this design problem

but for me it's the only one through my knowledge

that I found suitable and adaptable for this type of problem

and which is more  configurable at will

I would like to see the visual with the winding function

@+ ;-)

@GT22,

Nice work
