* Best viewed in HD 1080p! This is a companion video to a tutorial I made originally for Autodesk 3dsMax in which I created a Dupin Cyclide. Unfortunately, there is no parametric primitive with a 1 to 1 translation of the same tools or modifiers in Blender to match exactly with the 3dsmax object. Instead, I will attempt to use an alternate strategy. I will use modifiers and standard modeling techniques in Blender 2.8. I'm sure there are many other techniques which could be used in Blender to create this model, but this is the strategy I chose to employ.
This is a tutorial I created last year but never got around to post it until now *. A Dupin Cyclide is the geometric inversion of a torus. In this tutorial, I will show you one of several simple techniques to create this object in 3dsmax. There are at least two other methods of creation which could be used, but this one is probably the most simple of all.

In this tutorial, we create an Orderly Tangle of four interlocked, equilateral triangles for 3d printing or render element. If you haven't watched the previous Orderly Tangle tutorial, please go back and view that one first. The symmetrical arrangement of these triangles fit together to create a tight bond between each element, and will 3d print as one fused object.
In this tutorial, we create an Orderly Tangle of hollow squares for 3d Printing or digital design using procedural workflow in 3dsmax modifier stack. The symmetrical arrangement of these interlocked squares fit together tightly and will be fused together to create a single object in most 3d prints. For more information on Orderly Tangles or Regular Polylinks discovered by Alan Holden, check out the links below.
This video is just a quick overview of how I've configured my User Interface in 3dsmax to conform with my personal workflow. I will briefly go over some tips for modifying the UI for EZ access to tools like the Graphite Ribbon and some useful modifiers. I'll also reference some of the customizations I've done to my layout that may have led to some confusion while following along to previous tutorials using the default settings.
In this video, we revisit the creation of the Merkaba (Stellated Octahedron) shape first presented in a previous tutorial on my channel (see link below). In this video, I'll show you an alternate modeling technique to achieve the same object, which eliminates at least 2 or 3 steps. This new technique uses standard polygonal modeling techniques, and It's a much faster method. Hope you enjoy.
In this tutorial, I'll demonstrate how to create an abstract, twisted starball which could be later exported as .STL file for 3d printing at #Shapeways, or some other SLS 3d printing service. We will use only standard polygonal modeling tools available in all versions of 3dsmax 2010 or higher. No plugins or addons required.

In this exercise, we model a topological knot object for 3d printing in 3dsmax. Using simple subdivision polygon modeling techniques and standard tools, we explore a high genus model with curved handles very much like the topologic mesh concepts created in Topmod. We will model using real-world scale, for export later to a format which can be uploaded and printed at a service like Shapeways, or just about any SLS 3d printer.
In this tutorial, we're going to model a Sacred Merkaba, also known as a Stellated Octahedron or Star Tetrahedron in Blender 2.76. This is a companion video to a 3dsmax tutorial I did of the same object, and we will attempt to recreate that workflow now using Blender. You will need the Loop Tools addon, and the Extra Objects addon enabled for this exercise. They are located in the Addons tab of your User Preferences, under the "Mesh" and "Add Mesh" categories. I'm also using the Pie Menus, and Dynamic Spacebar Menu in this example, but they are not necessary to follow along.
