Antique Ice Box
Illustrated documentation is included.
Please note that some materials used in this model make use of the Color Mix node. If this model is to be used with Blender 3.4 and later, the Color Mix node will automatically be converted to the newer Mix node which replaces it, and should look and render fine. However, once converted and saved with Blender 3.4 and later, the material will no longer work with Blender versions prior to 3.4.
Description:
This model is inspired by a Gibson ice box “refrigerator” made in the early 1900s. It is a three-compartment design made from solid oak. The handles and hinges are brass, and the compartments are lined with zinc. The top left compartment contains a large block of ice. The door latches can be rotated, and the doors can also be rotated between the closed and open positions. The model can be used in period scenes and is of sufficient detail that it can be rendered in close-up.
Usage:
The model is contained in a single .blend file with all textures/images/materials packed inside. To use it in your scene, you can append it as follows:
• Go to the File Menu and pull down to Append
• Find the “Antique_Ice_Box.blend” file and Double Click on it.
• Double Click on the Collection icon
• Select the “Append_Ice_Box” collection and Click Append
Note that the model components are all parented to a master Empty Item represented by the large labeled axis. You can move or rotate the Empty to adjust the location and orientation of the model.
In addition the doors and door handles can be rotated into their open and closed positions using other Empty Items represented by spheres at the left and right hand side of the doors. To rotate the handles, select a handle and type R (rotate) and rotate the handle into the desired position. Constraints on the handle objects will only allow rotation on one axis. To rotate a door, selects its corresponding Sphere Empty Item and rotate on the Z axis to the desired position. Constraints on these empties prevent rotation on the other axes.
