      Hi all!
      Sorry to bother: I'm here looking for help.. 😳
      I am now modeling a building all covered with a particular stretched metal sheet: I've lost most of my sunday trying to model a tileable component, but seems like I couldn't...

      I was wondering if anyone can help me, in his spare time..

      I need a tileable 3D component, but I don't need it to have thick surfaces..

      I attach the technical sheet as a reference...

      Thank you all in advance, guys..

          Thanks Pilou for your attempt, but it's not like my reference.. I can tell that because I originally tried your solution too, but it was wrong...

          Why? If you go on copying your rows of metal, you will see that the holes are corresponding, while in the reference image a hole is not aligned with the hole of the lower row.. That was TOO simple! πŸ˜†

          What about making this a "MODEL THIS" competition subject? πŸ˜†

            Actually u are doing well but u ve missed a big/small detail;if u look carefully u will see that the component u made has to be a bit rotated .

                I made it only to see if it really is that hard,so no dimensions or so involved;it's good for reference though.
