OVERVIEW

This is a cheaper variation of our Drill Bits clean used dirty product, which you can find here:

https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/industrial/tool/drill-bits-clean-used-dirty

This package contains the same models as the one above, but it is available in more formats, and does not contain the textures and materials.

CONTENT

In this package you can find the following drill bit models (left to right):

• Forstner
• Step drill
• Masonry
• Countersink
• Auger
• Twist
• Twist long
• Lip and spur

POTENTIAL ISSUES

The original drill bits were modeled with a quad-based workflow.Unfortunately, two of the formats convert each Quad into two triangles, which means that we can't guarantee a quad mesh.

The two formats which convert everything into triangles are:

• STL (.stl)
• glTF (.glb)

But, of course there is a solution: You have to convert all the triangles into quads. This is how you do it in the major 3D software:

1. Autodesk 3ds Max: Under Geometry (All) choose Quadrify
2. Autodesk Maya: Go to Mesh>Quadrangulate
3. Cinema 4D: Under Optimize choose Untriangulate
4. Blender: Go into edit mode, press Alt+J (or Face>Tris to Quads)

Also, the glTF format creates some overlapping vertices, which can cause some issues. To solve it, do the following steps:

1. Autodesk 3ds Max: This video should help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLQK-QUMww4&feature=emb_logo
2. Autodesk Maya: Probably this could help: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/maya-modeling/overlapping-vertices-please-help/td-p/7214712
3. Cinema 4D: Go to Mesh>Commands>Optimize (See also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSj1UpOS6uA)
4. Blender: Go into edit mode, go to Mesh>Merge>By Distance (Sometimes you should experiment with the Merge Distance, which you can change if you press F9 directly after the merging)

We hope, that solves the problems. If that doesn't work for you, ask on software-specific forums for help, use another format or contact us at sorg3d@gmail.com.

TECHNICAL DETAILS

First Number: Low resolution; Second Number: High resolution

• Forstner: 711 - 2,824 Vertices
• Step drill: 1,610 - 6,372 Vertices
• Masonry: 3,680 - 14,644 Vertices
• Countersink: 613 - 2,410 Vertices
• Auger: 4,236 - 16,906 Vertices
• Twist: 1,442 - 5,762 Vertices
• Twist long: 1,728 - 6,842 Vertices
• Lip and spur: 3,593 - 14,308

In the low resolution, all 8 drill bits have a total count of 17,613 Vertices, which is 35,140 Polygons.

In the high resolution, all 8 drill bits have a total count of 70,068 Vertices, which is 140,000 Polygons.

FORMATS

The Models are downloadable in the Autodesk FBX, Alembic, Collada, OBJ, STL, glTF 2.0, and Blender Format.

USE AS FBX, OBJ, Collada, Alembic, STL or glTF

If you use the drill in the background, please choose the low-resolution drill bit from their folder and import it into your 3D-Software. Otherwise, if it is a foreground element, you should choose the high-resolution drill bit from the folder and import it.

USE IN BLENDER

You can use File>Append or File>Link and then navigate to the .blend-File with all the drill bits in it. Then click on Collection and choose your drill bit.

To adjust the resolution, change the Viewport and Render Level of the Subdivision Surface Modifier in the Properties panel on the right.

If you want to remove the drill bit, just delete it with X and under File>Clean Up choose Purge All a few times. That will make sure that the drill bit is removed from Blenders memory.

WANT THE TEXTURES?

If you already purchased this product, but then decide that you want the version with the textures instead, of course you don't need to purchase the other product. If you just e-mail us, we will provide you with the textures for an extra charge of 40$ (79$ - 39$).

Of course, if there are any problems, questions or additional wishes, you can contact us at sorg3d@gmail.com. We will reply as soon as possible!

Enjoy the product!
