Greetings folks,
I’m having some trouble trying to figure how to model these elements for a historic preservation render.
Would someone tips to the commands to utilize in modeling these elements?
I’m not sure where to start, however I feel like pipe/project to surface/intercrvonsurface….could someone point me in the right direction?
Hi Denzel - here is my quick and dirty made-up version - if that is approximately what you want and the steps (most likely) are not clear, I’ll outline them later in the day.
Spirally.3dm (2.4 MB)
-Pascal
Yes! That’s it right there. Please do post those steps
Hi Denzel - ok, it might be tomorrow though.
-Pascal
Sure thing. I am on standby my friend.
@Denzel_Hill see if this works-
Spirally_Steps.3dm (1.0 MB)
There are variations on the same basic idea but this may get you started.

I was working through it when I became stumped on flow along srf.
How do I set up the base surface so that my lines flow beyond the seam on the target surface?
Hi Denzel - see on mine how the diagonals start and end on the same ‘level’? This ensures that they will cross the seam cleanly-
Is that what you meant?
-Pascal
YES, that makes a lot of sense. Thank you. I will check back in with further progress.
My friend, I am sooooo close. For some reason, trim isnt giving me any results. I tried trimming in your help file as well with no luck.
Hi Denzel - post what you have.
-Pascal
can you see the image above? Thats as far as i get. from there, trying to trim is failing
Hi Denzel - I can’t help without a Rhino file. If that is confidential, please send to tech@mcneel.com to my attention and with a link back to this topic in your comments.
