Hi!

You can use the default rhino and grasshopper commands to create a closed mesh.

Are you trying to use a simple surface instead of a volume?

Hi Thomas, 

I don't know how can I create a close mesh on Grasshopper ?? 

Do you mean this plugin ? (mesh join) ?

Well I don't know what kind of geometry you want to create. Maybe you can post an example.

You can use Rhino (for a static model) or Grasshopper (parametric) to create your geometry. The geometry has to be closed. Otherwise waffeling could not work.

If you use nurbs you must convert the model into a mesh (see examples). Then you can use the Bowerbird modeling components.
