chitecture for quite a while. I've been through all versions of 3DS Max and I've used Maya and Softimage as well. In the last 3 years though, I started using the 3D apps as an architectural design tool, but you must already know that this it not the main purpose of them.
That's when a friend of mine introduced me to GH and I was blown away by it. This is like THE perfect thing for design. I'm currently designing a high-rise for a city here in China where I live and it has a very intricate twisting, thus I took the leap and started learning GH, but I think they time it'll take me to learn it will far exceed the time of this deadline so I did the whole model in 3Ds Max, but it was a real pain in the ass moving every individual row of vertices manually, and leading myself but nothing but rudimentary techniques to make it look right, and still, it doesn't look as I want and when having to modify it, it's just another full exhausting day at work.
Anyway, that's briefly the reason. I'm hoping to learn a lot from here. If you have any essential sources (preferably updated) from where I can push my knowledge do let me know please!
Thanks!!…
ple and/or easy.
I use GH/Rhino (really GH almost exclusively) for design. I find the parametric capabilities of GH simply spectacular. The Autocad apps are all quite good (and free) so I would have no problem recommending any of them. Meshmixer is a common starter for people new to 3D printing; it is targeted at more "free form"/artistic designs that is Tinkercad, which is more oriented for geometric/engineering/architectural designs. Sketchup is also a good place to start with 3D design; it used to be owned by Google but is now owned by a 3rd party company.
For slicers I've tried them all and have settled on Craftware. It's free and available at https://www.craftunique.com/craftware. For backup to that (it is still a beta product) I use Simplify3D (very seldom) but it costs $150.
If anyone cares I have uploaded an updated version of the Stepwell GH file; I tweaked it a bit to make it a little simpler and to make the base thicker so it would be more robust when printed. The dimensions of the part are large so it has to be scaled down to fit a particular printer. This is easily done with any slicer. The STL file from Rhino still has to be fixed; as exported it would print with no bottom - and I haven't figured out why that happens.…

comerciales. Rhino permite comunicar ideas en el desarrollo, investigación, manufactura, marketing y proceso de construcción de un producto o espacio, antes de ser construido y genera documentos constructivos para la elaboración de los mismos. Permite exportar los archivos a las extensiones comerciales más utilizadas en la industria como DXF, DWG, Illustrator y 3ds entre muchos otros. La gran cantidad de extensiones suplen las necesidades especificas para arquitectura, diseño de producto, calzado, joyería, ingeniería, manufactura y visualización fotorealista.
Grasshopper es una extensión de Rhino que permite el modelado paramétrico sin tener conocimientos de programación o matemáticas avanzadas, facilitando el desarrollo de modelos de alta complejidad a partir de formas simples o complejas.
En este taller se cubren los principios de parametrización, analisis, panelización, Corte CNC.

ject that involves the design of an app that allows people to interact with a 3d model through some sliders.)
Ok, imagine you have a symmetrical shape like the one i drew:
What I intend to do is to have different 3 sliders that allow me to adjust the 3 distances (x, y, z) independently of one another.
-1st question: my idea is to draw the curves in rhino, then use the "divide" and "list item" components to extract the points I need. Is it correct? :D
-2nd question: the "move away from" component can be used in a symmetric way?
(I try to be more specific: with only one slider, can I move both points 5 and 6 simultaneously about the axis i drew?)
-3rd question: is there a way that allows the curves to reshape themselves as I move the slider related to the distance between a couple of points?
I hope I have been clear ;) I would greatly appreciate any help you can give me!

precise) that unfortunately has more than one staff. This means that I pay the bills (unfortunate to the max). Practice is vertical meaning no Structural/HVAC etc services.
2. AEC Projects are made by teams. Period.
3. Teams are organized with some sort of hierarchy. Period.
4. On each team there's always one leader. Teams can being sampled in group teams - call them clusters (kinda like a List of List of ...)
5. All cluster leaders report to the supreme human being (yours truly). Leader heads are always on my disposal (it's fun to decapitate someone: I do this every Monday).
6. AEC projects are made with 1% idea(s) and 99% of what we call "sludge" (this is not my job: I'm the One , he he).
7. You can't steer any boat if you don't know each @@$#@ nut and bold. In the past there was a naive approach on that matter (ruined automotive companies, potato chip makers, software vendors, political systems, secret service agencies ... etc etc).
8. Efficiency is above all (even above tax-free cash).
9, You can't do ANY AEC real-life thing with what GH has to offer (nor Rhino is an AEC BIM app - it would never be). You simply use GH as a supplement to Generative Components (and/or as stand alone because it's good fun). There's nothing that GH does (I'm speaking solely for AEC as always) that can't being done with Generative Components.
10. I've done so fat 257 projects (a "bit" bigger than a house, he he). Let's say about 51427 drawings (master, master details, details) and 78956 lines of text (specs, cost estimations, space schedules, supplier lists, contracts, cats and 1 dog).
If you combine all the above you'll have the answer (i.e. why I use solely - if possible - code and not GH components). If you can't combine them I'm sorry.
PS: C# is the absolute standard (never judge a language as a "stand-alone" thingy).

ons of the frets requires the simplest bit of math. The (really) historical technique is called the rule of 18, and it involves successively dividing the scale length minus the offset to the previous fret by 18. [...] The invention of the pocket calculator made it possible to make use of a more accurate constant, and so these days we conventionally calculate fret positions for equal temperament by successively dividing the scale length minus the offset to the previous fret by 17.817.
And from here: http://www.stewmac.com/How-To/Online_Resources/Learn_About_Guitar_a...
The "factor" for fret spacing is 17.817154.
So using Anemone to loop, I got this:
I must admit that it doesn't look quite right, and I'm not sure why...?…
logic in the script body. Now it works OK. Feeding all the right data required to Kangaroo is entirely trivial.
Happens now : create some "filters" about if a given cone is a classic one (suspended from a triad of high points == make triads of cables etc etc) or an inverted one (pulled from the ground == do something about that, anyway). This means find some interactive way to alter the cones data tree on a per branch basis (a slider access branches > the offset is altered > cone "type" > ...).
Just checked the P thing : it's all clear now (DeBrep).
That said I work in a smoke build on some MCAD app that does the following : when you hoover over a tool ... the underlying method is exposed and ... you can find what is where in nanoseconds.
Anders: I've looked at the Brep.Trim before posting this ... but .. well I can't get the gist of it (anyway the split loop did the job).
... If the Cutter is closed, then a connected component of the Brep that does not intersect the cutter is kept if and only if it is contained in the inside of cutter....
