This Grasshopper routine generates an acoustic guitar body from a curve drawn in Rhino.
The controllable parameters are:
- Top radius
- Top thickness
- Back radius
- Back thickness
- Side thickness
- Soundhole yes/no
- Soundhole diameter
- Soundhole location from top
- Body thickness at heel
- Body thickness at tail
Please note this routine requires the Pufferfish plugin for Grasshopper, (version 1.0 also requires the Human plugin) both of which are available for free from food4rhino.com
The above version is the latest version 1.1, which has updated bake functionality available in Rhino 8.
If you are running Rhino 7, I believe the old 1.0 version (below) will work – if anyone can confirm this please send me an email.
