Hi,

I need to create such delicate concave cut (as marked), but I have no idea how to do this. Fillet wont help me, sweep neither, because it is on curved surface.



Can you help me with this?

Hi AndrewG,

It would be helpful to post a .3dm file, at least of the area in question.

BlendCap script could be helpful, but needs one closed edge.
Starting with a rounded rectangle, Rebuild will create one closed curve, which can be extruded, without endcaps.
Delete the curve, and select the edge, run BlendCap. Combine with the bottle...? Maybe Boolean delete from solid bottle? May need a little fillet?
(I have not tried a curved rounded rectangle.)

Hi AndrewG.

Maybe something like this ?

Here's the 3dm file : http://take.ms/DOSrB

And here's a video capture of Moi's viewport : http://take.ms/RGhbn

To do that model I've used one of the many possible ways : Trim, Blend and Project with some curves.

I'm going to show you a simple example in a little video tut.

Bye.

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately, it is not what I meant.

My bottle is rounded, more curvy. And I`d like to make this embos more curvy as well. See the file I`m attaching.

Thats why, this is such a pain in the back:)

AndrewG no problem, because my example is just a rounded bottle.

It's sufficient to create an offset curve and do a trim.

I'm going to show you the results on your model with a video tut.

Stay tuned.

Bye.

Blendcap method will work, by Merge of curvy rounded rectangle, and extrusion. Then do fillet of 0.19. (Might want to start with a slightly smaller curvy rounded rectangle.)

Note, there are 3 naked edges in the lower indent of the bottle.

How many help! You're a lucky guy.... :)

Maybe it's not exactly what you want but it can be useful for you to pick some ideas.

P.S. You have to hit "refresh" button on your browser a couple of time if you have trouble while loading the video.

The second bottle looks great. Can you share with me how did you achieve this? It would be really great:)

Hi Zarkow.

Good idea but the problem is that are not solid but simply joined surfaces.

Bye.

You need those Scripts

And the Solid Bottle

Thanks zarkow:)

It really helped a lot. Thanks for all your help, much appreciated:D

Really cool Zarkow. I especially like the "sweep" to cutback both edges to use blend for the connection!!!

Here is a method using "Flow" to place a pill on the bottle to cutout and fillet (With the fillet you can choose the constant distance or the rolling ball)

The "depth" of the cutout can be controlled by the placement of the base curve, relating to the pill.

Maybe some ideas here! ;)

Hi Moi'ers and Burrman

Couldn't help to see your extensive collection of extended scripts..
Can you put a zip file with all of them in dropbox?


Would be great with a complete collection :)



Thanks
