Blender for hull design

I started a new thread for my latest build which was generated using blender:

4.8m silver bullet

 

Useful videos to learn the basics of Blender 3.0

Blender 3.0 "Geometry Nodes" is pretty mind blowing... I am spending a bit more time learning "Geometry Nodes" now...

Basic hull structure components I'm playing around with new geometry nodes....











It allows for very precise parametric dimensions with real time feedback... very similar to grasshopper for rhino.

Geometry nodes is a game changer for blender for sure.

 

I added my work so far to github if you want to play with it or contribute:

blender_boat_nodes

 

Nice I will check your nodes,
I also hope, if you can start the develop, of a simple add-on to extract some hydrostatic data, from a custom hulls in Blender

Here my attempt with node for linesplan from an hull I have to get back into this but you are right the Geometry node can be a game changer

 

I have spent some time recently updating the geometry nodes version of blender hull generator.

The latest changes are commited to github (link in previous post)

 

I have tested the latest version by producing a real world scale model generated with the geometry nodes in the previous post. Everything fits together tightly.

The file is posted on github.

 

You are too far ahead, this is something that I have to look carefully, with the geo nodes I'm at zero progress.

 

Will try to do some more documentation and sample files... the nodes are reusable and can be linked between projects

 

Zukobo, your project is a big game changer in boat development for Blender users. Congratz on that! I hope someday "pay you a coffe".
My question, is open to all users that know how to do and would like to share the knowledge.

Question: I have made a chined hull and in the real world it supouse to be developed using naval plywood. What is the safest way to flatten this hull using inbuilt blender resources ??
