As a new Dynamo user, my process was close to the instruction that Glenn gave earlier this week. I’m simply in awe of the work my peers have done and I hope to get to that level of comfortability with this awesome software. That said, I start this assignment by constructing a set of parallel lines, which could be edited parametrically using integer sliders. I then inserted another line, as three lines are required to make a curve, and I played with the coordinate system to achieve the desired curve (an overhanging beam arrangement, in this case). After that, I built my curve control group and, using the same parametric principles from the line creation to establish the desired curvature of the points. Next, I used the curve by points and list tools to arrange the points, which were distributed via the cross product, into an L-like curve, creating my sought-after overhang. Finally, I imported the adaptive tube component and used the family type and adaptive component tools to “set” for me. Due to time constraints, I couldn’t play around with the materials as much as I would have liked, but I’m sure the geometry comes across.
