Multiple Conoid Membrane
-
I have been trying to create a membrane from multiple closed path, one rectangle and 3 circles.
The best results i could get was using the Skin/Bubble plugin.
Since the Bubble/Skin Plugin only works with one closed path, the only way was to break the circles and connect to the rectangle manually, creating a closed loop.Is there another way to do it, without breaking the circles?
Attached is a picture to illustrate.Thanks!

Take a look at this one.

i have tried that tool already. But you cannot use more then 2 contours at once with it.

One by one then intersection ?
Not sure that will be the good result

(please save in V6
And like this
(show hidden geometry for easy drawing of plans for easy drawing curves in 3D Space)
Use Projections By Didier Bur for extrude segments between volumes
-
pilou, i would rather use this approach because i think it lead to better topology.
i find that intersections of similar meshes in sketchup tends to cause some problem (small faces, small segments, holes, overlapping edges, not flowing loops, odd texture mapping etc..)
-
Thanks for the suggestions, i have tried Pilou's method.
Though i am still not quite satisfied with the result as you still have to predefine the connecting curves between the cones. -
Yes, it was a human method!
