Urgent Question solving with Autocad

Discussion in 'AutoCAD' started by Thorsten Sinning, Dec 30, 2005.

  1. Hello,

    a am a newbie to Autocad and I have an unsolved problem.

    I need to make a wireframe model of the human arm.
    I have some 20 CT-pictures showing the arm in slice every 5 cm. I was import
    the pictures and to draw the profiles of bones muscles and skin.

    How to combine all these drawings to one file in which I see the contures of
    all these inthe correct location?

    I could not copy and paste the singel contures in one. It didn`t work, I
    tried THICKNESS, but I didn't worked on copied objects, only on live drawn
    ones.

    thanks and regards,

    Thorsten

  2. Is there any flexibility on the software you must use for this job? AutoCAD
    wasn't designed to do this kind of thing.
    If you must use it you could manage something, if your standards for the
    finished product are flexible, but its a bit like using a screwdriver as a
    hammer...

    Why not download Sketchup and use it for free? Limited to 200~230 minutes.
    You can get your wireframe from it very easily.
