General / Re: Getting section cuts from the models

I use Rhino to create digital models of boats based on point clouds and meshes from PhotoScan. I import the mesh and/point cloud into a Rhino model and save it as a Rhino .3dm file. I do the Rhino work in a separate .3dm file. I use "Worksession" in rhino to "attach" the .3dm files with the needed meshes/point clouds so they can be used as references without adding to the size of the file with the modeling data.
Sufficient memory is needed so that Rhino does not start swapping data between memory and disk. How much memory depends on the number and size of the meshes/point clouds. I usually use meshes rather than point clouds.
