  My second architecture project
 
It's done! Anyone feel inspired to build it out of LEGO? (URL) (24 years ago, 11-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Re: My second architecture project
 
(...) Thanks for the kind words. I wish I could have it built...but I don't really have a spare couple $100K... If you want to build it, I'll galdly take compensation for the design :) After all, the studio could be turned into a LEGO room...and (...) (24 years ago, 11-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: My second architecture project
 
(...) My God that is beautiful. That should be in a museum. Are you gonna post the .dat file for that? I think I'll have to kill you if you don't (j/k) P.S. Can I live in that house :) -dead (24 years ago, 11-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) Uh, no. It's strictly POV code. Almost entirely differences and unions of boxes and cylinders. Imagine the pain of doing a spiral staircase without a loop and a difference command...now you know why there's no DAT file :) --Bram (24 years ago, 12-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: My second architecture project
 
(...) Hmm. How would a difference operation be useful for a spiral staircase? LDScript would have been useful for doing the risers. The angle is a function of Y, and LDScript has looping. That handrail would have been a pain in DAT-world, no matter (...) (24 years ago, 12-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: My second architecture project
 
(...) Each riser is a circular segment--the difference of a donut (difference of two cylinders) and a couple rectangles oriented to result in a pie segment. (...) Which is how I did it in POV-Ray :) (...) The handrail was a pain to do in POV-Ray (...) (24 years ago, 16-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: My second architecture project
 
(...) Duh. Of course. Doesn't POV-Ray have some kind of sweep/turn function, so you could take a rectangle (one side of pie slice) and turn it through a specified angle to generate the riser? Steve (24 years ago, 17-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: My second architecture project
 
(...) Maybe...I'm not that fluent in POV-ray... --Bram (24 years ago, 18-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
