Not a technical question but actually a workflow related one.
I’m pretty new to Rhino, so maybe I miss some useful commands. I always waste a lot of time when trying to join this kind of rib structures. Considering that the notches should be 1mm larger than the panel and with 20mm air ( due to workings tollerances )
My workflow at the moment is:
- Split in half ( or where needed) both panels
- Boolean diffrences where notches will be created
- Boolean union to recompose splitted panels
- Select every vertical surface of the notch and move 0.5 one side and 0.5 other side for both panels
- Select every horizontal surface of the notches and move 10mm up or down for both panels
Here I attach a 3dm file with the original and finished model
What would be your best practices or tips to speed up this workflow ?
