      cheers Dave, how did you make that?

      I did some with just this and moving grouped copies, exploding, but did you use a second plugin for the surfaces?

        John, I made two sine waves, connected them with lines and then used TIG's Extrude Edges by Rails to create a surface. Then Joint P/P for thickness.

              Sometimes, out of nowhere, you guys pull off this kind of stunts!

              Amazing work on the plugin John, amazing simplicity of processes with the scale tool too. Nice simple idea from Dave. Congratulations on a very nice thread!

                thanks,

                I'm in a lull from the 'other one' and thought I'd try making some geometry...

                it was originally based on an old Jim Foltz script and then developed with advice from Jim Hamilton...

                I'm considering doing a 'Pro' version, so this is the proof on concept...

                maybe that one that should be subscription only in keeping with the current trends...

                    I think any dongle needs an intermittent fault and an expensive service contract...

                          I made it into an Extension and if it doesn't break on PC's I'll add it to the store...

                            I updated again...

                            I hadn't spotted that the mac dialog was less descriptive then intended...

                            I thought I broke it when I added the language files, but looking at the gif above, show it was always broken...
