Visual Wrap Software
VisualWRAP is a unique software package for fishing
rod builders.
*It lets you design decorative cross wraps for
custom fishing rods, view them in 3D, and calculate
layout spacings for your blank.
*VisualWRAP is a software tool for working with
decorative cross wraps.
*It lets you design, edit, view and
share cross wrap thread patterns.
*Cross wrap patterns are built up by laying colored
threads onto a rod in a certain sequence.
*Patterns in
VisualWRAP are based on a similar principle - using a
scripting language you tell the software where to place
threads and in what order.
*The software then draws
threads on the screen, showing how the pattern will
develop.
*The pattern is drawn in 2D and can then be sent to a
3D viewer. This lets you see the pattern from any angle
in space.
*
You can print out the 2D pattern scaled to the size of
your blank. This is useful for laying out patterns, but also
for showing how the pattern is going to look on your
rod. You can print out a table showing the layout
spacings to suit a tapered rod, or take measurements
from the printed image.
*A special recipe page draws the pattern at critical stages
of its development, so you can see how it should be
looking. You print the recipe and use it as a guide while you do the wrap.
