Insert a sink in a cabinet
Hi Forum!

I've been searching for a way to insert a sink into a cabinet, and still can't figure it out, i know that with SH3D you have to be creative to achieve some things. Anybody as an idea?

Let's say i need to insert a sink into this cabinet:

Re: Insert a sink in a cabinet
- make the top invisible
- place the sink
- design a new top with a hole in it & place it

- design the new top by drawing a room with a hole, then export-import it as furniture

Ok thanks for this H.

Now let's say i can't make the material invisible because it's the same material .. any ideas?

Just make your countertop using a floor the specified thickness like this and place as desired.

Re: Insert a sink in a cabinet
I'd welcome your advice!

"make the top invisible"
- how do you do that? I don't see any options to change *part* of a furniture item.

"design the new top by drawing a room with a hole"
- how do you put a hole into the room?

"export-import it as furniture"
- Yay, I figured out this one, but for benefit of others this seems to do the job: Make a room and (still in the 2D view) select it, 3D View>Export to OBJ, Furniture>Import Furniture.

However :( my new object created that way has no thickness. I can change the elevation off the floor, but changing the "height" seems to have no effect, it still has no thickness. Suggestions?

Thank you!
