here is the file. I am using this tutorial: https://parametrichouse.com/parametric/kerf-bending-2/

Mirror output looks the same as Rot3D :interrobang: Because you have XY Plane instead of XZ Plane as the Mirror plane. There is no reason to move the mirror plane.

hi, thanks - i noticed that too. Also, I am not using Anemone but after trying to download it, it says its not supported by rhino..?

furthermore, can you see where i have gone wrong - why isnt the dashed from the fast loop D0 to ungroup G?

ive also noticed the tutorial has a star icon


, which I dont have. what is that star?

It indicates there is an expression on that input. Right-click on it and choose ‘Expression’ to see/modify it.

P.S. I see no FastLoopEnd in your Anemone code.

thanks, I downloaded it. I realised that the tutorial misses out a lot of information so I downloaded the example instead - can you help show me how I can apply it to my rhino model please? I have attached both.

I’m not sure what you’re trying to do… Anemone is often mis-used by beginners when no loop is needed. And there are obvious errors in your code.

Looks to me like you are on the wrong track. Try a different approach.

It’s not my code, its from the website above. Can you help me please - I am trying to work out how to kerf wood to create the rhino model.

No.

What is “kerf wood”? Oh, this? You don’t need Anemone for that.

Without Anemone, the result is not exactly identical.

I’m new to grasshopper and thanks! You made it look so simple!

thanks!

I didn’t use Anemone. Saw cut kerfs are always identical rectangles.
