Constraining a Voronoi skeleton inside a Brep

I am having trouble keeping the voronoi skeleton inside the BRep I create. It seems to be constrained inside a bounding box? Perhaps there is a tool i'm not aware of that constrains the pattern inside more complex bReps other than just boxes?

Any Help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

do you mean to contain like so? http://www.grasshopper3d.com/photo/voronoi-klein?xg_source=activity

yeah, That is what i'm looking to do. But as you can see the current definition I have breaks the boundaries of my geometry.

Here is how.

Thanks for the reply. That is the look i'm going for but I was trying to get it to work with my original definition. I have worked that one to where I like the look of it but I just can't seem to keep it in the BRep. I tried solid intersection and mesh intersection on the definition I was using but both fail to work. I assume because its trying to intersection a mesh and a BRep together?

Any thoughts on what to do from here?

Well you said brep. Brep is not a mesh.

Hi guys. I am new on grasshopper and it is driving me crazy. I need some help. I downloaded what you did and I apllied on one of my models and worked fine. Now I am trying to get a tridimensional body like the picture attached but I cannot figure this put. I am clueless. . I cannot use a standar surface, I must use a fixed STEP model of one of my client. Could you give me some advice?

Many thanks.
