      Hey gang,

      I was racking my brain for how to create an arced black shelf bracket like the ones we sell in our store – obviously I prefer to render with our products…..

      Then I realized I could create the arc with a SURFACE against the wall, and pull it away from the wall!  Thought I would post, as quickly and easily creating a small thing can sometimes solve a problem for folks.

      Then I just added a back and a top to the arc with CUBEs to complete the shelf bracket.

      I’ve now used a curve created as a Surface and pulled away from the wall to make a light fixture!  Versatile!

      Awesome – would you be willing to post the bracket as a .kit file please?

      Hi Mike,

      We can post kit files here?

      Hi Ariana,

      Sorry, thought you might have done it in the form of Dropbox or similar link. Perhaps you could email it to me? mikel@kitchencraftsmen.com.au

      Ah! I see! – I’m afraid I’m a bit of a luddite! One of the reasons I make so many things for my designs is that I really can’t comprehend how to bring in SketchUp stuff for V11.

      I will email you a kit file.  I’ll add in the lights I made for the kitchen attached – as the gold embellishments are made the same way – drawing a shape in Surface on the wall, then pulling them into the room. The actual light is a Cloud fixture with the dims modded.

      The gold Moen potfiller in the same pic is made entirely out of cylinders – I’ll include it! 😉

      Cheers,

      Ariana

      I wasn’t even aware that you could pull a surface into a room – I’ll be trying that!
