Want to start a Grasshopper Workgroup in Toronto

Hello, I'm looking for other Grasshopper users to start up a Grasshopper Workgroup in Toronto. I'm an industrial design graduate that's using GH for presentation images. I eventually want to output to CNC or 3D printing.

problem with sweep2rail command and remote panel

I try to create a surface with the sweep2rail command by choosing the 2 circles as the 2 rails and the curve as the section curve but nothing is being created (pic1).

In rhino if i use the command sweep2rail a surface is created allright! (pic2). What is wrong?

Also when i open the remote panel nothing appears! And this is happening to all the definitions i try. Why? when i try populate a panel… Continue

need to find out how to use GH on daily work

* does GH provide tools to generate some forms I can't do it in other ways?
* does GH help to brainstorm the solution?
* does GH simply my daily modeling work?

Currently I am reading "next generation Architecture" to get ideas regarding how other architects generate fluid form for his building idea.

I have class beginning on May 15.

Adaptive recursive subdivision of surfaces based on maximum subsurface-patch areas

This is a very simple definition that subdivides a surface, then subdivides some of the resulting subsurfaces again, based on whether they're larger than a given size, than does it again.

Though there's (alas) no real recursion in GH yet, at least not without scripting, it's not that hard to set up a group in such a way that it's easy to copy/paste/reconnect and do a sort of manual recursion for a few cycles, which is sometimes enough.

This was done as part of a…
