Introduction[edit | edit source]
Curved Shapes is a FreeCAD external workbench that creates 3D shapes from 2D curves.
Installation[edit | edit source]
Recommended installation is through the FreeCAD Addon Manager via the Tools → Addon Manager
Tools[edit | edit source]
Curved Array: Creates an array and resizes the items in the bounds of one or more hull curves.
Curved Segment: Interpolates between two 2D curves. The interpolated curves can be resized in the bounds of some hullcurves.
Interpolated Middle: Interpolates a 2D shape into the middle between two 2D curves. The base shapes can be connected to a shape with a sharp corner.
Surface Cut: Cuts a surface to get the outline curve or a face.
Examples[edit | edit source]
Horten H IX: A Python script that creates the shape of the Horten Ho 229 (also called Horten H IX), a stealth fighter that has been build in Germany in 1944.
S800: A Python script that creates the shape of a flying wing radio-controlled model.
