This is a lamp project I started to try and better understand ribs. I first lofted together three curves the twisted the center triangle 45 degs. I extracted contours from the lofted object then created surfaces on the contours. I then used grasshopper to extrude the surface to give it a thickness. I subtracted circles through all ribs so I can insert dowel rods. The pieces were exported to AutoCAD and then laser cut out of 3-Ply chipboard. I am still doing more touch up to the paint and adding a skin. More pictures to come....
