After much hard work and trial and error I've produced my final design complete with engravings on freehand.
Thanks to Terry I discovered I could have all 6 parts of my design together i one freehand document, Terry also found a way to transfer my design from Geometer's Sketchpad to Freehand while retaining the ability to modify the design without rough tracing. With this knowledge it was easy to put the design into Freehand and cut away the unneccessary, doing so gave me this:
I then had to add the engravings, this proved to be rather complicated as my plans were very elaborate. I wanted a different engraving in each triangle to create a complete picture when they were put together to create the hexagon. First I had to remove the coluar and reduce the image to lines and then had to remove the background and copy the image into Frehand to create this:
I'm glad this stage has finally been completed and look forward to cutting it out next term.
