Rebuild or create untrimmed surface

Hello

I am a novice in Rhino and Grasshopper, I want to reconstruct two trimmed surfaces into two untrimmed surface, through upper and lower curves, cutter curves and sweep line, because I need to use untrimmed surface for iso curve input. I’ve tried many ways but nothing works, can you help me? Or is there some other way like creating untrimmed surfaces through these curves with rhino? Grateful

Why?

Sorry for not replying to you in time yesterday. Because I want the output of isocurve to be wavy like cutter line.


Seem like this

Pufferfish plugin has some relevant features…

I have Pufferfish plugin but i don’t know that function before… thank a lot!

sometimes it’s easier to do it from the beginning…

I’m trying to figure out your program and these curves are smoother than tween two curves and fit what I need, thanks a lot!

Ah, but you didn’t mention that important detail. Why do they have to be isocurves?

Thanks for figuring this out. I’ve been stuck trying to use this approach for 3D printing. The problem I couldn’t resolve was how to deal with a trimmed surface that secretly retained it’s original untrimmed shape. For reasons I don’t currently understand even using a very old routine from David Rutten to shrink a trimmed surface to it’s actual shape didn’t work for me.

But then I haven’t yet come to grips with your solution either. I’ll come back to that after I do a bit more tweaking to get everything ready for a finished print.
