Creating a Last from Digitized Points<br />

SHOE DESIGN AND VISUALIZATION WITH RHINOCEROS<br />

In this section, you are going to create a last model from digitized points. The points have<br />

been created using a MicroScribe digitizing arm following radial outlines drawn on the last.<br />

Creating curves from the digitized points<br />

The first step is to create curves that define the sole, topline, vamp, <strong>and</strong> heel curves.<br />

To create the sole profile curve<br />

1 Open the model Digitized last<br />

points.3dm.<br />

The lower edge of the last has been<br />

digitized with as much detail as possible<br />

along the last axis. This curve defines the<br />

shank <strong>and</strong> the curvature of the sole.<br />

2 Create a Sole curves layer, <strong>and</strong> set it as the current layer. (Edit menu: Layers ><br />
