Has anyone a suggestion on how I can generate / create a pattern like this?
Thanks a lot
Hello I’ve tried a few things but now I’m wondering what the most efficient or fastest way of doing this would be:
As a test I’ve drawn curves over the high ridges of the pattern:
Option 1: SubD Multipipe and cover it with drape
based on this tutorial:
Youtube video
Step 1: multipipe:
Step 2:
Drape
Option 2: Sweep 2 rails
I tried Sweep2rails:
Do you have any suggestions on how I can do this more efficient. I’ve included my 2 example files.
Thanks a lot.

Bowl Sweep2.3dm (3.6 MB)
You could use this process:
I used the curves to split a circular surface into multiple planar surfaces. Is there a way to soft edit all these surfaces and select them by their internal edges and pull these higher?
Thanks a lot for the suggestion, but I’m looking more for a way of doing this with commands instead of doing this graphically, so the technique I learn is not based on grayscale images only.

This is done with Kangaroo in Rhino 8.
The ring surface is split with curves, the segments are joined to a brep and remeshed with TriRemesh.
Then using a variety of goals, some of the vertices are fixed, others are transformed.
I’ll be able to try this later today, but this looks already very promising. Thanks a lot!
Nice. Was it machined on your own machine?
I could have done that but I made this one at work. Now I just need to figure out how to get the paint to look similar.
