I'm looking for a free (haha) or inexpensive tool to unfold/unroll 3D models to get sewing patterns for fabrics. Think couch or chairs upholstery with foam inside.
ExactFlat is a professional tool that does just this. For hobby / starting a business this is way too expensive and also has an overkill of functions. I have read the unfold function of Rhino isn't really suitable/accurate for making (complex) sewing patterns.
Is it possible in Rhino, is there other software out there or would you advise another technique to create patterns?
Simple couch cushions are something I would like to start with and ultimately I would like to try and make something as complex as this chair https://flokk-cdn-image-prod.azureedge. ... isco_2.jpg.
