File preparation: Rhino
- Generally, the rhino file prepared for milling must contain the following layers:
- "Stock" layer: a box, at the world origin, representing the size of the block of your milling material.
- Topography: A single NURBS surface for smooth terrain, or a series of flat surfaces for stepped terrain.
- Features: Layer(s) with NURBS surfaces for roads, water, etc.
- For each features layer, include another layer with boundary curves for each surface.
- Buildings: If buildings are to be milled with the base, include a layer with NURBS surfaces at the tops of buildings.
- Also include a layer with boundary curves for each surface.
