In our weekly Rhino series so far, we haven’t covered any real “surfacing” yet, but many of you are itching to get started! So for extra-credit this week, feel free to take a stab at this one. It’s a little bit long, but I cover a lot of ground here!
More vids after the jump:

Ehm, sorry for misunderstanding- i didn’t mean it seems like i’m weird- i meant it seems like the video is messy..
Or what did you mean by “finding the information i’d need”??
Same to the Video No. 12 in part 2- same problem as user “Philipp” commented in year 2010- video 12 is playing the sound of video 11 at somewhere around the middle of the video..
Btw, english is not my mother tongue ;) so sorry for any inconvenience
Hi yellowpinkfox!
Yes, we are unfortunately aware of the issue, but unable to correct it. The videos are quite old, and are due for replacement anyway. Apologies for the inconvenience.
Best,
Adam
No worries ;) lacks a little but the main part is still very useful!
Thanks and keep it up!
Hi there-
Adam, you’re doing a great job!
But in Video No.8 at sth. like minute 4.00 the video does not correspond to the voice- or am i totally weird now..? Checked it a few times but seems like..
;)
Sorry! I hope you’re able to find the information you need.
Best,
Adam
Nice tutorial but I have a problem when Im import the pdf. The size doesnt fit the grid. It seem too small. Im working in small objects in millimeter
Hi Stein!
The PDF should come in 1:1 if you’re really using a small objects mm template. Try using the Dimensions tools to double-check one of the dimensions. If the dimension is correct, you’re good to go. The grid may appear too small, but you can adjust it using the Tools > Options > Grid settings. If the dimension is incorrect, there’s probably a unit mismatch somewhere.

Thanks for the tips, SkySurfer. The reason I went for CurveNetworks in this case was to achieve curvature continuity on all four sides (Sweep 2 Rails only controls continuity on two sides).
Glad you found it useful, Tim. Kinks usually happen because some piece of geometry is ever-so-slightly off. Unfortunately it’s very easy for this to happen in Rhino. It’s particularly likely to happen when creating a G2 patch (like the Curve Networks surface) with the edges of surfaces that aren’t tangent continuous. It’s difficult to explain in words.
If you email me your file I’d be happy to take a look.

nice tutorial
and thanks to skysurfer for those tips
saved me a bunch of time
im getting weird kinks in some areas that appear only when i join surfaces, anyone else experience this?
Thanks for these awesome vids, they’ve been absolutely fantastic and very helpful.
Cheers
Thanks for your effort using rhino.
I saw your last video and, sorry, there’s some mistakes.
Networks srf isn’t the ONLY solution, I would prefer a sweep2r.
And, because it’s Rhino and not Alias, you can split and trim Srf directly with a crv and without projecting or extruding/intersecting srf.
You can create a BlendCrv directly on a SrfEdge with the Edge option.
