Grasshopper
Mesghali Studio Grasshopper Master Tools . Volume 01
I've created a running Grasshopper Definition that i feel can be useful to people using the plug-in and Rhino in general for professional work in retail environments, furniture / carpentry and general fabrication.
I will add updated versions as I build more tools in my practice and organize the file as feedback comes in. Feel free to reach out if you have an issue using them or need further explanation.
There are three main functions in the toolkit for now:
1. Turn any brep box into a series of butt jointed sheets
2. Turn any brep box into a series of mitered sheets
3. Turn any flat surface into an adjustable fabricated wall flat with front facing sheets and studs (warning, only works in one direction, parallel to x axis)
This is a work in progress. Open to any and all feedback:
You can either open the associated Rhino file, or rely on internalized data in the script. Same thing.

I just added an associated rhino file in the blog post. let me know if that helps :) by internalized do you mean a geometry that is self constructed in grasshopper with parameters instead of sourced?

I'll check it out another time. By internalized I mean geometry that is drawn in Rhino and which you use those definitions on. So when you've linked a surface, which you drew in rhino, to the grasshopper file then you can right click and press "internalize data". Then if you delete the surface in Rhino, the surface is still saved in grasshopper.
