Hi dear SketchUppers,
A second solution which gives the same result
This alternative way is a bit longer to achieve because you need to delete the circle and clean cpoints and clines, but this ancient TIG's set of tools although poorly known can bring great services.
The plugin used is TIG's TrueTangents v3.0
The tool used is True Intersections.

Simon,
Consider how the manufacturer produced the fence. Q: With what did they start?
A: A length of "wire," with a constant, repeated sine wave. This should be maintained in a 3D model. Keep all of the sinusoidal segments the same length.
Truly, the sine segments along the top of the fence will be curved, but they should be maintained at the same length. I can demonstrate this evening, when I have some modeling time.

Hi,
Nice model Cotty, thanks 
Dear Gaieus and Pilou I'm so touched that you care about me and remind this so "epic and anthology thread "
This had given me the occasion to re-read it with the so nice supervision of Taff Goch and the flashy talented youngness of Elisei (ely862me).
It had been a really nice moment.

@gaieus said:
True, I was also thinking about it. You can easily make it tilable horizontally, too - the only problem is that vertically it should be a bit higher so that you could apply it on more various (although of course, still limited) height.
You have decided me to achieve these materials. they are available Here:
"Parisian Fence material: 3 sizes available in 2 colours."

With my friendship,

"Un grand bonjour" to you all my good friends of SketchUcations forums I haven't been in contact for long.
This thread:
"Simple (low-poly) lattice component by cotty"
http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=51167
and the so kind intervention of Gaieus and Pilou
Which was referring to this one:
An exercise: DRAWING A PARISIAN FENCE
http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=29342
had given me the idea to achieve the following materials (Su + Thea + Photoshop)
Small + medium + tall Parisian fences png with transparent alpha serie available in white an green

Yea, it's been taking a long time. It's been a much bigger project than I'd imagined.
I've done, what I think, is most of the core. I've begun to work on the tools to manipulate the meshes now.
"Courage" Thom! this is going to be a wonderful tool, an indispensable one. May be your "Chef d'oeuvre".

Simple and useful.
"Very SU-like concept" -> +1
another nice one.
downloaded.
thank you a lot Tak2Hata

Hi Chris,
How lucky you are. Start a second life, perform a second passion, change for a new country, a new home and discover other friends, this is a part of "the American Dream" for all of us not from America.
If one of the firsts significant acts from Trimble is to hire you (What a good choice they are doing there), we can hope for SketchUp.
I wish you the best.
Simon
Hey John
It is a pleasure for the eye and mind.
Never miss to follow your job.

What a pretty vacation village!
Are they the colored dots you where talking about ?

You probably need to use some external software (I have seen one some time ago, but I don't remember the name. It has export capability to Sketchup, can handle crests and is fully specialized on this problem of terrain shaping)./...
Hi Fredo
your Toposhaper looks very promizing 
You were probably talking about Terragen
( Terragen 2.4 Free Version Now Available)
Here a model made by Google Guy (G.G.):

For minimal effort your best bet would be to forget all about generating your own terrains and import real world elevation data instead. If I recall correctly you can directly import .dem files into sketchup. Try downloading some files from here and see if they work out for you.
