Due to many components not being available in OpenSim, the consensus is to commission the most vital components to complete the Shork Cafe setup.

Hello Artist!

We're happy that you came here! You're here because the Shork Group commissioned you. Most likely for an avatar. but maybe also some object.
Objects are relatively easy:
The object we can use either as one solid object - typical for a chair or bed - or as an object separated into its functional components.
What does that mean? Take a fridge:
A fridge has, as the bare minimum, the following functional components:

• fridge body
• fridge door

When we receive these parts separately, we can assemble them in Second Life, do some little tricks ,and the result is a fridge where you can open and close the door.

With the solid object, it is a bit more tricky:
The door part of the fridge needs to be internally marked, somehow, as a separate and movable component.
None of the Shork Groups core members knows exactly how that works and is done. And our affiliate specialists that do know, only have time for emergencies when no other solution can be found.

When you, dear artist, know how this can be done and can show us inside OpenSim, we'll actually happily pay you for creating an easy to follow step-by-step howto-guide.

However: For the moment, let's assume you have no idea what a Second Life or OpenSim Avatar is or how it is assembled. We use SL and OpenSim here at random, as the mechanisms are identical for both.

First of, here we have a rough design guide for our avatars
