Where Can I find the Barend Hemmes wooden laser cut waffled light bulb grasshopper factory?

Site Administrator Note: worldwide copyright for this design has been claimed by the original artist (see this response).

I want to recreate this (see below) for a project, I have the grasshopper program but I need a factory for this or any other tips where I can generate this, I have 2 days to do it. It seems fairly easy. Well, please help.

Thanks

Sim, I'm attaching you the files with all you need to make the lamp, the first file contains the Ribs' planes for lasser cutting, pieces are tagged, hope it's helpful. the second file contains the profile curve for the grasshopper definition and the third file contains the GH definition where you can change the parameters to get more or less ribs, i tried to make it as clean as possible, if you have any doubt i'm here to help you

Dude,

Thanks so much again, I apologize I went to bed when you sent the remaining messages. I will look these over and play with them to my specs, if they aren't already. Thanks again, I will go to your site and check somethings out. By the way, just curious why milimeters? Alright, I see where you are located, got it haha.

I'm from México, so, for me it's easier to understand it in millimeters, but if you open a new document in Rhino on Ft or inches the definition will work in that system. by the way, the curve can be modified or you can give another curve to the definition but you need it to have it's end point's aligned and it should be drawn on front view. anyway if you have a problem just ask, and, could i ask you something? could you send me pics of the final lamp when you build it?
