      Hey Kelvin, I did this in about 10 min. If I get a chance at lunch I will recreate in a video. Plugins I used were Joint Push Pull for a volume, Sphere for the nodes and Lines2Tubes, same as Charly.

        Well done Eric! I'm interested in your technique as well. I'm still learning from you professionals.

                @Boofredlay: That is an amazing sequence of operations. I keep coming back to review. Good work.

                I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

                      thanks, eric. this is brilliant!!! 😍 😍 you have quite a knowledge of basic geometry. you make quite a complex construction look simple. congratulations.

                      I only wish I could understand the future use of all those geometry classes when I was at school...

                            Eric, what I learned from the video was not so much the geometry, but the value of stopping and thinking about your workflow before starting. That was very useful.

                              Impressive modelling under 6 minutes in the tutorial. I had a couple of d'oh's watching.

                                    By the way hanthu, HERE is a wonderful, and quite remarkable series of videos exploring the 4th dimension and related dimensional tensors.

                                    Not sure if they still offer the 720P versions for download anymore, but they are still beautiful to watch.
