hi, than you for this informative video, I have got a PROBLEM: I did every single thing u made in Grasshopper, but I still get "data conversion failed from curve to surface rhino", would you please help me out?
Thank you very much for such a helpful video. Just a little question: When I connect the 3 number slider to the perp frame's parameter, it only takes 1 and on the curve there's only 1 section even though I already selected 3 sections and 3 curves in order. What do you think the problem is? Thank you
Hi, thanks for the videos! Could you please explain how do i change the curve without affecting the position of the perpendicular plain? Thank in advance!
Thank you for your tutorial, it's amazing. i have a question, so i did everything you explained but there is a problem that my curves intersection are rotated in minus z direction, i mean instead of being in a right direction they are in the opposit. it seems the bench is rotated. i dont know ehat i did wrong. can you help me out please?
very cool, I am curious if it is possible to divide the object so that the distances between the elements are different as well as the thicknesses of these elements (can it be done easily in a softwere)
How can I set the dimensions of the sections? Let's say I want to manufacture the bench using CNC. I would have to make the right calculations and have the dimensions on point. Seating level should be at around 45 cm from ground level, while the thickness of each section should be 2 cm for example. Also the gap between each section should be 1 cm.
In first Thank you so much for the tutorial ! Maybe you have some tips to create and export the sections of this kind of parametric creation ? For example, if I want use a CNC to cut a wood panel to create the bench ?
thank you for your tutorial. I like the way you explain detail why it done rather just step by step tutorial.it helps a lot. but i have i problem by section are extrude accordingly by the order I draw them. it randomly arrange. maybe u can explain how to make them arrange accordingly.
I cant connect more than one number slider into the parameter input on the perp frame componant? This was possible in the video. Any ideas why it wont work? Completed exactly the same steps. Thanks JP
I have a problem. When I connect the "Perp Frame" component to "Brep Plane" component, and try to create more sections of the sweep surface, but the result come out is that some sections are not perpendicular to the curve or path, and also not according to the parameter of "count", for example, I input 10, but it output 15 sections, and the 5 more sections are the twisted sections. I tried redraw the path as well as the sections. But it didn't work.
Unfortunatrly no! Grasshopper tries to keep its tools as simple as possible and that's why its powerful! You can combine the move,extrude thing to a new tool and have it for future use!😊

is it possible to import the curves into rhino and quickly use imported curves? for example, using a 3d scanned curve. ? or do I have to design the curves myself in order to have this functionality? thanks for the advice

I was having the same issue. I think it has something to do with the direction or flip of the section drawing. I ended up redrawing the sections in the file and the twist went away for me.
How did you set your grasshopper components to read their full names for the inputs/outputs? Mine only reads a single letter for each and i need to hover above it in order to find out which input/output it is
Hey, I’m having an issue with showing the full words of the of the task, I am just getting a D for direction and S for section etc. If you know how to display the full words that would be very helpful to my learning
Make sure that your line drawings don't have any duplicated lines and that they are joined together. Clear all values in grasshopper and go back and select each line to make sure they aren't overlapping. I had the same problem and that fixed it for me
Do u mean you want to connect two number sliders to an input? Hold down shift for several outputs to one input..also watch the grasshopper basics for more info about how grasshopper works
First you should use "Orient" component and do the nesting process. This tutorial might help for that: parametrichouse.com/parametric-bench-1/ Then you can easily bake the sections and export them from Rhino as a dxf file.

Hey coders! If you're having trouble with your cross-sections being rotated, attach the "Perpendicular Frames" mod to "Flip" mod and then to "Target"
which flip mod, iam not getting
