Featured Thing!

Description

I saw the original Patron one piece chair, and I thought 'that would be a perfect thing to try and model with a Bezier surface'.

This thing is an attempt to model the patron chair it derives from using the Bezier surface library.

It's just fun to play with. You can fiddle about with the vertices of the curves, and see how the curve reacts. It would probably be much easier to model with a different type of curve, but here it is.

Yah, possibly. I'll have to actuallyy print one and probably fiddle with the design to make sure it will actually balance. Then perhaps it could be printed in cement, or clay, or whatever gets run through that big machine.

Look like a prime canidate for le big rep...

I think Hermite or Spline would be a better modeling curve in this particular case. But, wonder no more. There it is.

It's actually pretty easy to throw something like this together pretty easily.

I wondered if you would, when I saw it :)
