Trianglês ??? We talked about use wood slices and foem sheets, to get the shape.
Perhaps I mis-remembered.

Taking it from the top. Assume a 3D model of the Morelli body. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=pepakura+d...alemoon&ia=web is software that allows cuts and flattening that result in patterns that can be cut from sheet materials, from paper to plate steel.

Obtaining the final form without wooden egg crates and cut and shaped blocks of foam strikes me as a potential time and money saver. A smooth convex shape like the Morelli body would have a very simple peel pattern.

Lightwave? If it works for you (and your system) go for it.
