Truss Sweeps
I am attempting to create custom trusses from a group of curves that all have unique rails and orientations. I want to sweep or extrude or revolve a custom profile along these, using them as rails. However, there are over 40+ 'flange' curves and hundreds+ 'web' curves. Essentially, I want to be able to feed all of these curves within a Grasshopper definition and skin them. The pipe tool can do this very well, but I do not want a circular profile, one has to look like a wide flange [which means it needs directional or orientation information in 3 axis], and the other is simply rectangular [which means it only requires 2].
Any ideas?
1 an example of the base geometry and definition
2 what I want to achieve [the final profile geom isnt set yet.]
