Thank you! I can't properly say how much I appreciate you comment, it means a lot to me, really! I hope to keep doing it, I really think this is the future and everyone should know a bit of 3D modeling (if you think about the potential offered by 3D printing I am sure you agree with me!). I am trying to kill the prejudice, sometimes people believe that 3D modeling is just something boring and difficult to learn. I know also that there is a huge difference between working on a small item like a toothpaste squeezer and working on complex designs for aviation; but a simple project is a good beginning :)
I used to work with 3DS max too, mainly for architecture (rendering), it has a lot of features and it is a powerful tool! Now I am more interested in other softwares, but 3Ds max is like my first love!

Thank you again!
