GRAND FINALE






A place for meditation?

7 STEPS FOR MAKING YOUR VERY OWN TRIANGULATED HUT!



1. Create curved surface in Rhino. Don't worry about perfection!



2. Apply Grasshopper parameter definitions: triangulate surface, label faces, fillet corners, add spaced holes.








Here is the resulting triangulated surface. Any desired adjustments can be done in Grasshopper and the Rhino file simultaneously updates the surface.





















3. Export triangulated surfaces from Rhino to AutoCAD














4. Laser cut surfaces

5. Sand and apply surface treatments

6. Organize cut pieces with labels as a guide

























7. Stitch pieces with desired connection material; rope, piping, zip-ties, etc.
