[Q]How to create an I-beam?
Hey.
This might be a question with a really simple answer but here goes: How do you create an I-beam in AC3D? I'm trying to create a overhead crane which rides on a set of rails, but I can't create an I-beam that will serve as the crane rail. |

In any 2D view, draw an I shaped polygon with the polyline tool.
Select all the vertices and extrude them. Select your object and set the surface type to "poly" (to get ride of the polyline). HTH.
