How to get Kohler sink image

[Gary Puckett]

Does anybody know how to get sinks from Kohler to place in the drawing?

Thanks

Go to Kohler's web site and download. You will then need to convert it to an STL to import it into eCabs through the Display Part Editor.

Is there one particular one that you need in case one of us has it?

I did get it converted to a stl, but when I gave it texture it came out with hatch marks. Here is the sink

Hi Gary

What is the model number for this sink so I know what it's supposed to look like?

Hi Gary,

I see what George sees, and it looks like what is on the Kohler site. I guess I'm kind of confused as to what the problem is that you are having.

Gary,

I tried it also and using the gourad setting it looks fine . The only problem I see is the cross hair look in the center of the sink but that is a problem in the original model and it doesn't bother me enough that I wouldn't use it in a presentation.

I went to the Kohler site and copied the color skyblue for the sink and this is what I get.

Gary,

It is tiling the image instead of stretching it. Just use the color controls in the Display Part Editor to get your color instead of using the image. You can also find many colors in the Formica and Wilsonart folders using the Display Part Editor.

Did you crop the image before using it? If you did not I''m assuming the pattern you are seeing is the border of the image you used. I would just try setting up the colors to get close to what you need.

Thanks Kerry & Joe for all your help. It's just when a problem happens I need to find out why.
I know that there is always a way around a problem to get to the end result.
