[Plugin] Slicer5

To discuss something like this send me a Private-Message outlining what it is you want to do, I'll then get back to you with some ideas...

Hi TIG,
This website isn't the most user friendly how do I even send you a private message
? Could you email me matt[at]sftc.com.au -
No - I will not become involved in email discussions, except in exceptional circumstances...
But it is NOT difficult to PM here...Also, please stop posting your email address publicly - spam-bots will scrape it and you'll get extra spam emails ! I edited your posts' address's @ to an [at] to protect you from this...
It's very easy to do a PM...
Click the Private-Message icon [box?] below my avatar to the left of this message.
In the page/dialog that appears type/edit [or copy/paste] your text, attach files or images etc, as appropriate and then submit it to me.
I'll be notified immediately under my own Message heading, and we can then have a simple to-and-fro conversation, all of which will be 'in private', with you getting notifications when my reply is in your in-box etc... -
Mr. TIG
Is it possible to make variation of this plugin for cutting object to pieces
(For example a big object cut to pieces fitting for 3d printing) ?
May be "Slicer" workflow will be OK - cutting in X, Y, Z or any combination of the 3 axes. -
Look at my "Split to Plane" - which should be able to split your container into parts...
https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=TIG_Split_to_plane -
OK, but the idea is to make multiple cuts at once.
To convert a cube to Rubik's cube - serial cuts in different directions controlling distance between cuts (like slicer). -
Slicer5 will make cuts in two planes ?
I don't understand your issue... -
I'm talking about new plugin that will work similar to "Slicer" but cutting object to smaller parts.
Cutting in 1 or 2 or 3 planes (X, Y, Z) and why not in additional "A and R-planes" like the planes in "Slicer""Split to plane" is OK for few splits, but what if I want to make 100 splits(cuttings) equal in height in Z-plane then each of these in Y-plane, and then in X-plane.
-
With appropriate settings Slicer5 will already split your solid along any 2 planes.
But unfortunately not with 3 planes !Omitting all gaps/slots/tolerances etc would probably make it simple enough, and then allow a new tool with XYZ slicing...
Unfortunately I don't have the time to do any of this, this year !
The code is readable and you are welcome to try your own new XYZ version... -

...Is this possible with Slicer?
I don't think so, or I obviously miss something in Slicer settings. -
The slice settings are XY XZ and YZ
But there's no XYZ ! -
TIG I understand this. The main problem is is not 2 or 3 axes/planes, problem is Slicer is not making actual cutting.
My English is poor and may be I do not use proper words - splitting, slicing or cutting.
So I'll use word dividing.
Slicer is not dividing objects. The idea is to divide in different planes.
In the Lion illustration above every horizontal part has to be separate object. Start with whole Lion as 1 object, applying divide in Z-plane and the result is as in illustration > separate objects instead of 1 whole lion.
Is the idea clear now? -
So. your request has little to do with Slicer.
You want a tool which splits an object along the XY and Z planes in one step.
i.e. something like my Split tool, but with more repetitions per plane...Again, I'm sure it's possible but I am unlikely to create a split-XYZ tool any time soon
-
The future tool already has a very good name:
Split-XYZ

Please contact me through my IG account j.margulis
Would really like to have a conversation about some ideas that might help you in your process -
