algorithmic modeling for Rhino

I am fascinated with Erwin Hauer and have made some things prior to this experiment which try and replicate his process. Here I took what I learned and boiled it down to the lowest common denominator so to speak. What I am doing is referencing a list of existing endmills which I have already modeled. I am then patterning the shape of these endmills along a grid of points. This information is then mirrored and shifted up and over. All of these duplicated breps are then boolean subtracted from another breap which represents my material stock. The result is a previs of what type of Haueresque screen wall I could make using a particular tool. The great thing about this is to CNC these it takes minutes as the machine is simply drilling to defined depth using the appropriate endmill.
