I couln't begin to think of a clear subject line for this question.

For awhile I've been thinking about making cardboard models of the 
objects we have available.  Some of you may have some ideas.  What 
hasen't worked very well is slicing an object into many little planes and 
then rendering them one by one with the camera on the Z axis.  The goal 
being to make patterns to print and lay on the cardboard.  It took forever
and since I really want many, many slices without AREXX to help it's not 
the way to go.

Any thoughts?  With cardboard being +/- 1/8" thick you can see that I'm 
considering some big objects.  But cardboard I got.

I'm also hunting for a model of the Coliseum in Rome, with or without a 
solution to my chalenge.

Thanks,
