Create planes by equation/table

Building a musical instrument?

hehe, maybe ;)

I can't find a way to pattern planes ('07). I tried using sketch- driven pattern, no luck. Looks like you may have to create 25 individual planes and equations.

How about making a flat surface or real thin flat extrusion and bringing that into an assembly as an envelope part. Then control the pattern via a table or equation? If you wanted the planes in a part file, then you could just have the part in context to the planes in the assembly.

I was able to create a macro to do this but would be nice if there was an easier way. Unfortunately the macro documentation seems to be a pos so it would be hard to setup a system to work in in general... plus I hate VB. Looking into addon's but doesn't seem to have any decent documentation. (it's one thing to give a list of functions but entirely different to explain their behavior)

It can be done using equations. I gave the value of C and then added another equation as "A"=3D "C" * ( 1 - 1 / 2 ^ 1 / 12 )

No for every plane you may need 2 create a different equation I guess so it means 24 different equation with different value of m.

Using table will be much easy over here.

You might consider defining your planes to points in a planar sketch. Definig the Planes is *kinda* a lot of manual work (actually, about two minutes) to attach all the parallel planes to the sketch points. Then you can use SWX equations to space all the sketch points
