      To me it looks like two intersecting eggs with ribs running through them, so there is curvature inbetween each rib.

      Using native tools you could create the two 'egg' shapes, add the thickness of the ribs with the shell plugin and then intersect a series of rectangular boxes to create the ribs.

        I don't believe that!
        It's just tensile structure between each rib ๐Ÿ˜„
        And yes after all structures draw an egg curve โ˜€

            We're making progress!

            Now, as Rich says, lets clear that V6 off your old computer and get you up to V8.

            Maybe you need a virus on your old computer. This one ought to do the trick. ๐Ÿคฃ

              Weren't there some legacy capabilities in v6 and v7 that you don't have in v8? Free or Pro?

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

                  You're right, Tim.

                  Pilou, you should have both.

                    I wasn't trying to stir up any trouble, nor give Pilou any excuses.
                    Now, as for the shelter structure. I would most definitely try it with native tools first. What I see is progressive extrusion, scaling and either, pushpull or followme ribs by copied loops. Otherwise, Curviloft for the volumes, intersect them and so on. Those fundamentals die hard with me.
                    After all, I am only a little bit swifter than a brick.

                      But I have both but not on the computer linked to the Net! ๐Ÿ˜’

                      97% of the files posted here has no need of the V8 for read them! ๐Ÿ’š
