Real Crafting

Real Crafting is Yo.Town Maker's professional 3D sculpting and modeling tool. It offers powerful carving features and rich auxiliary tools so you can freely add bases, cutouts, split hinges, decorations, and more to existing 3D models.

Features​

Sculpting screen overview—where you shape your model
  • ⓵ Joint: Quickly create mortise-and-hinge connections for easier assembly

Base​

Add a display stand or base under your model

Click Import My Tool to upload a custom model and use it as a base object.

  • ⓷ Adjust Tool Size: Adjust the size of base tools to change the base range
  • ⓸ Confirm Creation: After adjusting parameters, click confirm to create the base
Positioning tip

After selecting a tool in Real Crafting, click directly on the model surface to locate it. The tool snaps to that surface for faster placement.

If you do not want snap behavior, switch to Translate, Rotate, or Hide in the Operate area, then fine-tune position and orientation manually.

FAQ​

Q: What should I do if the model is deformed during sculpting?​

A: Adjust carving depth and use smaller depth values for gradual carving. If deformation is severe, use undo to restore.

Q: How to precisely control object position?​

A: In the Operate area, use Locate, Translate, and Rotate to adjust the position and orientation of tools, add-on objects, or bases before you confirm.

Q: Can I use multiple auxiliary tools simultaneously?​

A: Yes, but only one tool can be active at a time. You can quickly switch tools and use them in combination.

Q: Can the base size be adjusted?​

A: Yes. Before you click Confirm Creation, use the Radius and Depth sliders in the base panel to adjust the base tool range.

Q: Can attached add-on objects be edited separately?​

A: No. After you click Confirm Attachment, add-on objects merge into the target model and can no longer be selected or edited separately. Finish positioning and orientation with locate, translate, and rotate before you attach.

Q: How do I delete model blocks?​

A: In the Operate area, use Hide to remove model blocks.
