What I'm doing with the vertex in model builder is no longer adding the cups. I now just flat the male grooves on the cups
that come with the articulator, so I can attache it lower on the back of that flat edge, on both sides, to give me a little more room
for the hinge separation. I don't get a lot of base thickness from the Sirona I/O scans I'm getting, so this helps.

Save yourself the trouble of cutting them off. They come flat or slot for the same price per 100.

Might need some XML settings to go along about orientation and stuff... prolly you could hack the vertex DME and swap the STL out, it is just a plain ZIP file ;)
Ok......

Thanks :) I've been using up the ones l had when I was using that system for my stone models. When I run out, I may get a couple of the 3Shape articulators. But I had forgotten about that option, so thank you for that reminder :)

Rename the DME to ZIP, unpack, find the STL you want to swap, find and rename all XML references to the new STL name, re-zip the folder, rename it back to
DME, install... enjoy. Use Notepad ++ for XML editing.
Thank you, double zero!!! I'll give it a shot.
