Intermediate Tutorial 03, Part B: Parametric Wave Design using BeeGraphy

Описание: Welcome back to the Intermediate BeeGraphy Tutorial Series! In this Episode 03 (Part B), we continue refining our Parametric Wave Design. Building directly on the 3D geometry created in Part A, this session focuses on adding advanced features, preparing the design for fabrication, and enhancing its interactivity within the BeeGraphy environment.

We'll dive deeper into computational techniques, exploring how to manage multiple influence points, control edge conditions for manufacturing, generate 2D laser cutting files, and optimize material usage through nesting.

Timestamped Content Breakdown:

00:00 - 00:05: Introduction
00:05 - 03:25: Welcome, Recap of Part A (Episode 02), and Whiteboard Overview of Part B Goals:
03:25 - 06:45: Setting up the Workspace for Part B
06:45 - 35:50: Further Breakdown of Implementation Steps
35:50 - 57:35 (Further Breakdown of Implementation Steps): Plugin Installation & Usage (Nesting):
Guidance on accessing BeeGraphy's plugin documentation and installing the "Nesting Guillotine Best Fit Naive" plugin.

In this video, you will learn:

How to implement and manage multiple attractor points using the "Closest Point" node.
Techniques for achieving edge dampening on parametric surfaces using "Pull Point" and boundary geometry.
Methods to generate 2D profiles from 3D geometry suitable for laser cutting (e.g., using "Explode," "List Item," "Change Origin," "Rotate").
How to create an interactive 3D/2D viewport toggle using "Stream Filter" and "Select" nodes for easy visualization.
The process of installing and utilizing BeeGraphy plugins, specifically the "Nesting Guillotine" plugin.
How to optimize 2D layouts for fabrication using nesting techniques to define sheet sizes and arrange parts efficiently.
Further applications of data tree manipulation and list management for complex designs.
Using the "Math Expression" node for custom calculations.
This intermediate series (Episode 03) builds upon the previous tutorial (Part A - Episode 02), focusing on taking a parametric design towards real-world fabrication and adding more complex interactions and controls.

YOUR CHALLENGE:
Experiment with the "Nesting Guillotine" plugin. Try different sheet sizes and gap values. Can you also modify the script to include numbering or labels on your 2D louvre profiles for easier assembly after laser cutting?
