Another great tutorial Mike. This one would cut my morning shave time by a factor of 8 :)

Great tutorial Mike, you are the network king ;)

If I enlarge this thing it would be something I'd use to scrape the ice off the car windscreen on those icy mornings, that thing is not going anywhere near my face, two blades will do me just fine ;)

I'm happy to be able to provide my tutorials in an additional language.
So now, many more people in the world will be able to better enjoy MoI-3D!



Amusez-vous bien!

"Le Rasoir" ;)

Yes, but it's a "women's" Rasoir! ;-)

So you can say : "un rasoir pour homme, un rasoir pour femme" ! ;)
or
"Rasoir pour homme, rasoir pour femme"
or
"rasoir masculin, rasoir feminin"

"Un rasoir pour Sasquatch" ! ;-)



Vous avez vraiment besoin de 16 lames!

Magic,

I've been using MoI since the second or third V1 beta, back in 2006, but everytime I read one of your tutorials I discover new tips and tricks or different techniques.
Great work. Keep up producing such great tutorials !

Greetings from another belgian guy ! ;-)

Schbeurd, thanks for the kind encouragement! :-)

Every couple of months I've learned a bit more about the nature of NURBS / solids modeling — after years of poly subdivision work — and every time I return to your tutorials and understand your creative workflow better, Mike. I am in awe. Much respect to you.

By now I'm ready to experiment with the network function. Previously I created a lot of curve cages that wouldn't network, but now I understand that Network needs some kind of polar structure. Thanks a lot for sharing your valuable knowledge.

Thank you Metin!!!!! :-)

It's amazing to me how math can so beautifully define objects in the real world, whether it be natural or industrial.
And even so much more amazing is how simple it is to manipulate those shapes - thanks to Moi.

I think we're due for a great new tutorial in a few months. ;-)

I totally agree, Mike, both with the beauty of math and the beauty of MoI.

Looking eagerly forward to your next tutorial!

Hello, i hope all is well.
I thought i'd give this tutorial a shot.

I am currently stuck at the network stage. After creating the profiles and running the network command,
the calculation fails. Can you please help? What could be wrong?

I look forward to your help : )
Cheers.

Sandeep.

Post your 3dm format file! ;) (zipped if possible)

Hello Pilou,
thank you for your speedy response..

I work on a Mac, i hope the file opens. Please find attached.
Thank you.

Sandeep.

Hi SanSingh.

I downloaded your 3DM file and for what I briefly checked I think that the main problem are the Red and Blue curves.
1) The red curve is a single curve made by two segments not well joined.
2) And, furthermore, even the blue curve is one single closed curve.

As you can see in the video I have simply deleted the red curve and I trimmed the blue curve.
Then I selected ALL and performed the Network command.

Hope this can help :)

Hello, you are absolutely right!!!

So i guess i didn't need to select the red curve when running the network command and
i needed to split the blue curve into two.... Wow, i would have never figured it out.

Thank you so much. I really do appreciate your help and quick feedback.
Thank you thank you! Have a blessed day!

Sandeep.

You're welcome SanSingh!

Best.

Where did you get that command history panel?
Is it generally available?

Thanks,
