Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

Help with making this component

Hi all.. I am trying to make a component in Grasshopper or Rhino, like seen in the image. It is made out of Tee component made out pipes which are interlocked into one another to form this distorted pentagon. Note that all the components are of the same length. any ideas..?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I've created the attached algorithm. You will need to adjust the angles manually for each of the pipe's rotation. As it stands, I have one slider controlling all the rotations (aka, all rotation angles are the same). As I am no math buff, you might have to do a little research on your end.

Hope this helps!
