I want to realize a structure in wood with this program, something like picture upload in this discussion. So, I create similar strucure in GH, but now I've a solid and I don't know how to "cut" my solid to realize 2D surface to cut and place to create my structure...

contour components.

i think you u can contour using the general shape of the object, so instead of just contour straight up down or left right, you set up to take sections following the perpendicular vectors of the shape. Maybe.?

actually i might make a dome, trim it to the plan outline of the surface, offset on surface the outline until the to of the dome, then project those lines downward onto the actual object.
