"Hi, Justin
Now that I have better understanding of what you want I re-worked your model again. I used tangent adjustable surface blends to create the main features. The trim curve was created with an adjustable tangent blend curve with the…"

"Hi Jason,
Would love to see how you made that.....could you send through the file??
Could be the image however, but the bottom end doesn't look like half a circle.....looks a bit flattened out....?
Thanks for…"

"Hi
I had to rebuild all your input curves and surfaces to reduce the point counts, smooth out the curvatures and get the right surface degrees.Then it was just a matter of doing a simple trim and sweep two rails.
I still think the multi blend…"

"Hi Justin,
I created a youtube video, which should explain it pretty good:

"Would be good to see how you made it with the plugin :)"
Justin replied to Justin's discussion Surface Challenge
"Downloadd it and tried it....works great!
Seems to be just a few tools that are standard in rhino but allow much more control. Multi Blend is great though......so stupid its not standard in rhino as these are quite common surface problems.
However,…"

"Ha Ha,
VSR Shape modeling "Multi Blend" was the first thing I thought of when I downloaded this model. VSR+Rhino is the best software purchase I have made in a long time.
Love it!"

"PS: The SolidWorks example has got a positional gap of 0.05mm, something you can easily find out with this plug-in. ;-)"
Michael G.-G. replied to Justin's discussion Surface Challenge
"Sorry to hear. :-/ but there is much more the plug-in can do. You can download a test version which is working for three weeks, if you want to have a second look on it. I know it is expensive compared to Rhino, but it allows you to get clean…"

"ehhhhh....just saw the plugin is like 1500 bucks.....sorry...not happening.....should just be able to work in rhino....grrrr"
Justin replied to Justin's discussion Surface Challenge
"Hi Michael.
That looks great.......please could you show me how you achieved this with the plugin?.
Kind regards

"Hi,
what do you think of the attached result? I have been using a plug-in, though (VSR Shape Modeling 2.0).
If you are interested I can explain in more detail how I did it.
Cheers,
Michael"
John Brock replied to Justin's discussion Surface Challenge
"There are two general approaches to this sort of modeling. The first is to extend curves so you can make a 4-sided surface, then Trim away one corner to make the 5th edge. Your model suggests the boundary curve could be the Trimmed edge, suggesting…"
Justin replied to Justin's discussion Surface Challenge
"O yeah, btw.....i need to be able to mirror this so it needs to be nicely tangent as is the solidworks version.
Patch doesn't allow this.
Network curves allows you to get into the pop up console, but creates a crazy surface.
Thanks

Hi Guys,I would like to create the surface attached.Next to it is the same surface created in Solidworks as an example of what i'm after.This was done with network curves, but you are allowed to select more than 4 sides or pick constraintsNetwork curves doesn't work as there is 5 sides.Patch doesn't make the edges tangent (and yes the box is ticked) and when you zoom in they are not connecting. You need like 50 spans to get anything kind of close.Any ideas on how to make this?See More
