Introduction

Rotational scaling, as the name suggests, allows scaling of geometry around and axis. This can be very useful to generate geometry with circular patterns, such as fans, wheel rims etc. There is no direct way in Blender to scale a geometry around an axis. The following implementation was done using the new geometry nodes and would should work with Blender 3.0.1.

 

Introduction

Draft check is a requirement for manufacturing processes that involves moulding, casting and Sheetmetal stamping. This implementation uses shader nodes to calculate the angle between the sub-division normals and the given direction.

  • Green Color: Positive Draft
  • Red Color: Negative Draft
  • Yellow Color: Areas between the positive and negative draft angle.
