    I am using Sketchup to create some functional parts. Do you know if there are any commercial or paid Sketchup plugins for creating this kind of 3D lattice structures, see links below?

      Nothing I know of that will fill a void in a mesh like nTopo does.

      You could try TIG's Honeycomber....

        Or Lattice Maker always by TIG

        You can also "project" any grid volume on a surface volume by Shape Bender, Flowify...

        or Su2Component by Suforyou

          Thanks for such a fast replies!

          One additional question about plugins. Do you know if there is any plugin that would create some kind of lattice wireframe inside the object, see image below? I am just thinking if there was an easy way to do this maybe the 3d lattice structure could be created by trimming and thickening the wireframe with the help new functionality in Profile Builder 3.0 (Build Along Multiple Paths).
