Projection vertices to do base - Geodesic Dome V3 5/8

Hello again, I’m working on a geodesic dome (which will actually be built) and I think it’s better for a cleaner assembly. Can you help me, how did I achieve this?

Option1: Remove the bars with the yellow “x” (image)

Option2: Keep the bars with the yellow “x” (for improve the tough)

It would be great if you first clean your file so it only contains the necessary part .

Yes, sorry. here it is.

Also, I noticed I have an issue with the “cutting plane” in the script; whenever I change the factor (height), the geometry doesn’t follow correctly. Can you review this as well?

I think you meant keep the bars with “red” mark in your image .

For the cutting plane, please add more info because I can’t find any plane intersections in your file

Thank you!!! I’m continuing to work on this script. When I make these changes and other improvements, I’ll post them here.

But I would make the base like this.

But I would choose an even number of subdivisioning so that the icosahedron can be trimmed into a hemisphere.

Oh, yes, in terms of constructability, it’s much better to have the foundation perpendicular to the plane. I’m working on it. I found this solution:

I’ll try what you did; there’s always something to learn.

Right now, there’s one part of the script I’d like to improve because it’s not parameterized; it’s more of a guess, based on trial and error.

If you follow the suggestion, the division will be easier and you can use the center of the icosahedron as a reference.

Thanks for help me :smiley:
