Hi there everyone,
I am currently working on a project that involves strange attractors. I have downloaded various GH plug-ins that let me create them, but the one I have found most useful and the one I am using is the Chimpanzee plug-in. The plug in works by plotting a set of points with the parameters of the input, which I then convert to a curve.
These are the set of points that the plug in creates. Then I interpolate them to make a single curve.
This is what I am left with. My initial idea is to create a pipe or a sweep with a profile I choose, giving these curves a volume (I would like to be able to modify if they intersect or not). After that, I would also like to take like the “contour” of the whole shape, and create a solid shape, inside of these curves. Therefore my questions are:
- How can I create a sweep with the desired shape I want as a profile.
- How do I modify the width or extrusion of these curves so that they intersect or not.
- How can I make a solid out of the points I am given so that the “pipe” is placed on top of this object.
- Since I want to create a solid inside, I guess I would need to somehow cut the line inside so that I only get the outer lines for it.
Also, here is the file!

Thank you in advance!
Edit: Added a question and the file I am working on!
