Rhino Models   Mold Positives Match Plate - Rhino

 Object Design #1 The Saturn V rocket launch inspired my first idea for this project. This idea came from a project I had previously worked on, attempting to model this rocket in 3D space, and I thought the rocket itself was interestingly shaped, and I wanted the curviness of the smoke that comes off the rocket. Therefore, this is my first choice for this project, as the finished design is completely symmetrical and straightforward enough to cast, considering I have never worked this way before. Inspiration Models Object Design #2 The second design idea for this project was more of an experimentation of creating the shape only using Grasshopper. I feel less strongly about the design and how it would be cast, as each level is built with polygons whose segments could be changed. This can cause pinching and weird shapes with the geometry, and I do not know how this would work with the casting or the 3D printer. Nevertheless, I thought the model produced some nice designs, but I decided to
