ToyCar plug-in for Rhino by David Rutten

David Rutten at Robert McNeel was kind enough to revive his plug-in named "ToyCar" for me. The ToyCar runs along a surface and finds a plank line path on it. PLEASE NOTE that the plug-in is not yet finished!


ToyCar + Grasshopper helped me create this:

Thanks for your help David!

  2. Hi,
    I'm not so familiar with this term, so I'm not sure. Perhaps someone else knows?

  3. Hello. This cone model seems very interesting and thank you for sharing. However when I tried to download the plugin the page seems to be missing (considering this was years ago). Could you kindly upload the script for the cone model? Million thanks!!
