Shell all the way through

Hi folks

Suppose I start from a closed polysrf like in this case a cube as an example.
Someone knows how to shell with both sides open? python / rhinoscript / …

Offset with solid option.

I’m using the following script in Grasshopper:

brep_offset_c.gh (167.7 KB)

ooff, thanks but I would prefer not to go as far as launching Grasshopper for this :slight_smile:
I’m also still on Rhino 7, so I couldn’t use Push/Pull either btw

Do you need the command in a script?

would be nice!

Here’s a script which should work in Rhino 7

inset a face to the thickness you want, then simply push pull thru the whole part.

Inset (no split)

push pull

result

i must be missing something, why not use the shell command and simply click on both sides?

Maybe the OP wants a script?

since you replied to the topic generally i just assume you meant me.

maybe, but it is not stated as the one and only imperative option and i have a hard time imagining what this script can do for such a very specific niche objective which probably could just be finished long ago by manually shelling a few parts, and maybe the task could even be solved entirely different if the op would let us know what he is up to.

Yay, that’s it. I knew it had to be something easy, but I just didn’t know this was possible yet. Cheers!
