Let's Extrude Key Rings

**csehz** · 29 March 2015, 03:10 PM

Maybe someone will feel the idea inspiring if tried to extrude metal things with Xara extrude tool, because then sure it should be capable to make keyrings. If for that is needed a key, chain and the ring in any design

On this try the motives on the heart are simply from the Font Awesome Symbols

Nice work, cshez. One day we will all have 3D printers to print our creations.

Looks very nice Csehz

Dave yes all the objects are extrudes, the background is made by fractal transparencies.

Thanks for Frances and Steve from today also having much more effective opacity mask pasting technique

Looks great, Csehz.

Excellent work, csehz. I occasionally use the tool for car emblems, which I have found works better than the envelope tool. (for me)

I love the Key.

Ok, here's a quicky. Done in about 30 minutes. I know there's some things that could have been done better, but I'm being lazy. I just wanted to contribute to the thread.
The key itself is the only object that was extrude tool.

Thanks Ron yes you gave a great idea with combining the car emblems as the key rings, I also have a plan to give a go.

On your version a new material included so leather, plus the chain is more real as in my version it was only an extruded circle line
