Lofting and offset surface
In the first three weeks, I have learnt the basic parameters in Grasshop-per, and I tried to write some simple definitions with these parameters. This is a very important stage that allow us exploring the ideas by using parametric modelling tools. In addition, this is the first time that I touched this design area, which the outcomes are controlled by the parameters in Grasshopper.

WAFFLE SYSTEM
Blue BlockThe definition in the blue block represent the first stage of the waffle system. It divided the surface into x and y direction and created a box with 8 corners. And then divided the curves on the x-plane and y-plane. Next, it oriented the planes in it direction of each divi-sion point according to the reference point A.
Green BlockThe definition of the green block is made so you can set up the number of sections in the X and Y axis sepa-rately , also you can set up the height of each sections as well as the thickness of the ma-terial you are going to work with.
Pink BlockThe next stage is to make the x and y oriented plane into a surface to form the waffle system. Finally, the lattices in the x and y direction are created the grid of the waffle system. Then, we can bake the planar surface in the x and y direc-tion to form the waffle system.
Red BlockThe definition in the red block shows the method to create the gap for the construc-tion of the physical model. Finally the definitions orients al the parts to the X-Y axis with an ID tag so you can easily organize them and get them ready for the CNC mill or the laser cutter.
