I’m trying to develop a product that will eventually be generated from several meshes, but in the end it needs to behave as a single object. I’ve already created the first mesh, yet when I try to merge a second mesh exactly where I want it, I can’t get it to work. Second question: If I start with …

[image] manuel mansilla: generates an envelope spice on the mesh but does not give thickness to the solid. What I want is to be able to define the thickness of the solid in such a way that it is solid, not that there is space inside the solid. You can achieve it with OffsetMesh , Off…

but there is no a command in grasshoppers called offset mesh. And I should used the output of the shrinkwrap or what do you mean?? [image] Thank you very match.

[image] manuel mansilla: but there is no a command in grasshoppers called offset mesh. I noticed you have Weaverbird installed. Pls double-click the left mouse button on the canvas and search for “Weaverbird’s Mesh Thicken” [OffsetMeshGh]

Hello everyone, To connect two or more meshes, using shrinkwrap is not very accurate because it removes points and therefore can shorten the dimensions of the original mesh. Is there any way to join several meshes without showing the joining points and not changing the dimensions of the rest of th…

[image] manuel mansilla: not very accurate This depends on the edge length you set… Have you tried Mesh Union?

I know that it depends on the edge lenght, but if you put a low edge lengt the resulta is that de points of union are very clear, and I dont want to see where is the union. I have tried mesh union and happens the samen, that the points of union look to much.

Have you tried Isopod Smooth Union?
