====== Landing Stage ======

The [[project:maerklin:warnemuende:start|]] project is planned to include a landing stage. Because no suitable parts were available for purchase, we decided to build one ourselves. First, we will need to create a 3D model of it.
===== Modelling phase =====

==== Blender ====

{{ :project:maerklin:warnemuende:landing_stage_blender_draft.png?400|}}
The planks will be created using [[software:blender:start|]], because they are intended to have an organic shape, and CAD tools (like [[software:freecad:start|]]) generally struggle to replicate such structures effectively.

This is the first draft of the plank path. It was test-printed with a 0.2mm nozzle, and the level of detail achieved was excellent.

After some tweaks, I decided to create a fully customizable organic plank model. This allows me to generate multiple variants. The .blend file can be downloaded {{ :project:maerklin:warnemuende:landing_stage:landing_stage_planks.zip |here}}.
==== OnShape ====

The exported planks was imported into [[software:onshape:start|]] and I added the missing parts.
