 been trying to do some modeling in cararra that I kinda want to make a bunch of little mechanical pieces, problem is that it's REALLY hard to get them to all fit together with out some sorta precision modeling where I can make things all the same size and such.  is there something I'm missing?  really want to be able to input precise measurements ..?






Hexagon, Carrara, Sculptris, and recently Sketchup.

^^ what geep said however if you need beyond this you might have to look at one of the free/open source CAD packages then export to Carrara.

not a complete list nor even the best just a quick list found off the net.

You need to ... Select a vertex ... or an edge ... or a polygon ... and it'll "be there." 😄

 ya, just figured that out... was hoping it could to the whole object though  :(  I think I can make it work this way if I think about it
