>> Very complex and beautiful! <<

Thanks Marco! I appreciate your appreciation.

The result may look complex, but it you look at the node wiring images on instagram
you will see that it was relatively simple tp define....

...while allowing for infinite manipulation of the resultant weave.
Such is the advantage of this methodology.

Anyway, thanks again

It's awesome !
but it is possible to map this texture on my own model and not just a sphere ?

James or the Braidings' Master!

Finema,

>> it is possible to map this texture on my own model and not just a sphere ? <<

If your model is a 4 sided patch it will map. See attached. seamless texture on revolved surface.
If your model was a poly-surface it may be possible, however ensure seam map seamlessly may
be difficult.

UPDATED: more complex texture mapped form posted here:

Hope this helps.

Yes, it's very interesting. Too bad there are no scripts on your instagram.

James this is really A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!

Simply...beautiful :)

It could be very very interesting to see some of your creations turned into reality with a 3D-printer or other kind of manufacturing process.

Listen to me, think about it James.

You could build stylish furnishing objects and decorative items for house!

Your creations deserve to be turned into reality!

Thank you so much Marco,

>> very interesting to see some of your creations turned into reality with a 3D-printer <<

I have a cheap 3d printer which I have used to print some of these designs, with varying degree of success. I do in the future plan though to send something to Shapeways or similar for quality print.

I thought I once posted a woven pendant lamp example, but can't find the thread posting. Anyway I have attached another here


There are other examples of my work at www.jameshargraves.com


As it happens, I do plan to do something along these lines with this triaxial weave & the randomised bulbous forms.


Thanks again for your support

@You: "There are other examples of my work at www.jameshargraves.com"

Wonderful things. Congrats!

Here's an amusing little experiment inspired by the work of Christian Bird (fellow noder)

It is amazing what can be done with MoI and Nodeeditor!
Seed count of a dandelion is on the to do list.

Thank you Al, Marco & Brian,

I have just begun playing around with Karsten's SimpleBridge node.
It is a bit finicky, but there is really scope for making interesting forms.

Karsten, if you're there, it could be greatly improved with addition of boolean (0 or 1) input for visibility.
Also is there a way to make the selected faces to bridge between, not persist after bridging?

Based upon limited testing:

The Blend node does not seem to work.
The GetByName node does not seem to work for edges.

Trying to Blend the edge of an extruded star, with the edge of an extruded circle, then take cross sections for an array of a star changing to a circle.

Hello Brian,

the blend node only works for two edges. I think that can be changed - I have to think about it. It's a while ago that I wrote some code.

@ James: I have to look to the code - every node in subD was written quick and dirty as a platform for the development.

I'm happy to see that some of you still uses the nodeeditor and the results are amazing!

Have a nice day
Karsten

Karsten,

It is so good to hear from you.

>> I have to look to the code - every node in subD was written quick and dirty as a platform for the development. <<

Rather than spend any of your valuable time looking at code of SimpleBridge, I would more value the addition of subDivClassic functionality and alternative option on SubD node (I'd be happy with it as a seperate node if it would male your life easier).

The beauty of subDivClassic is that outputs quads which are idea for using SimpleBridge between
&
also for populating with mFlow.

If I've piqued your interest, please let me know

All the best,
James

Thank you Karsten for the Blend node information.
Regular MoI Blend of the Star edgeS to Circle edge, does work outside of the nodeeditor.

I'l have to look at the Blend code, :-)
and also have a look at getting Get_by_ name to use edges...

Get_by_style doesnt seem to recognize edges either...

(Haven't got around to the slicing part yet :-)

- Brian

---

For clues about edges: There are about 9 shortcut key scripts which deal with Edges of BReps, currently available.

Karsten created BrepNameSubObjects node, as used in his Fillet.nod example assemblage,
and also there is ExtractEdges node, etc.

I think some new nodes to utilize edges would be helpful...
This time of year, my play time is limited.:-(.
