grasshopper contour tool

Below are images of a project I have been developing at work to create a sectioning tool with the rhino plugin grasshopper. The model generates a contoured model of any object with the grain of the contours determined by a control line. Gaps between contours are also part of the model logic.

Hi Daniel,

I'm a postgraduate architecture student studying at the University of Bath in England. I'm just taking my first tentative steps into the world of form finding using grasshopper. Rather foolishly I have chosen to learn these new techniques on a live studio project and am understandably struggling.

I am attempting to build a slicing tool, much like this one, and I was wondering if you would be willing to send me a copy of your file or a few screenshots of it so I can try to work out where I'm going wrong!

You an reach me on robin.davis.2002(at)gmail.com, let me know if you'd be willing to help me out.

Thanks!
