Free Sculpted Prim Maker - Tokoroten

Here’s another freebie sculpted prim maker – Tokroten.

It’s an extruder (think pushing toothpaste from a tube with a shaped nozzle and you get the idea), and works in much the same way as Rokuro – a lathe tool that I reported on earlier – in fact the two are so similar they are made by the same people – and it works well in the sense that it’s a tool for doing one job and it does it well with no frills.

You create things by dragging dots around on the screen and then extruding the shape – and you can have a few tweaks to it like revolving as you extrude.

Here’s the architects favorite, the H beam……

….And here’s the resulting Second Life Object – note how the crisp edges of the template have been lost a little – and the things in the background were created usin the same tool…..

And here’s the one prim staircase that everybody seems to want – though the collision mask around a sculptie prevents you from actually using it as a staircase – you have to set it to phantom and use a transparent ordinary prim at 45deg to actually walk up (which kinda destroys the whole point of it!)…..
