Hello everyone i’m new in grasshopper and I’m trying to achieve a result similar to mayakaplandesign for creating lace like structures in grasshopper for 3d printing, the pattern could either be driven by a image sampler or by curves working as attractors, i really need help on how i could start build this algoritm
thank you
Hey Simon,
Do you need help with the geometry/model definition that will generate the object, or with the G-code itself?
I remember this plugin helped me once:
https://www.food4rhino.com/en/app/droid-3d-print-slicer-and-path-plotter
But I’m not sure whether it still works with the current versions of Rhino.
Hello Enrique, I need help with the definition part, for the 3d printing part I have no problem
Hello
viewing the range of creation of https://www.instagram.com/mayakaplandesign/ your question is really too broad.
Here is a link to explain the “rules”
Like many others, begin by little steps. From my experience the difficult part is first write the algorithm you want. For example.
Take an image draw lines on white part, fill on black one. So this brings questions. Space of line, limit between black and white. How to fill, is it a surface, a curve, a mesh ???
Then you can do the Grasshopper and don’t worry there it is 99.99 % possible.
