this video helped my life and paid all my debts and saved me from going on a downward spiral i am eternally thankful for this thank you

Thank you, you're a life saver. I've been putting off a (late) project because I couldn't understand my professor's tutorial and felt overwhelmed. Thank you again, definitely subscribing

YESSS! I wasn't paying attention when my professor showed this in class and now I can complete my assignment lol. Thank you!

perfect the 'orient camera to surface' was the command I needed!!!

this is so fucking clean, youre the goat. workflow : immaculate, voice : soothing, my perpetual architecture anxiety: calmed. it obviously banks on having a really clean and simple document as you cant really patch line work and keep the same efficient workflow (unless you do it directly on rhino) but this is really really really good.

very helpful, to the point, and well explained. Thank you

[miguelcarrion]

Excellent tutorial, clear instructions and simple to follow (doubles as an ASMR video too lol)

[Aldo.flores]

Hi Tom. Clear explained, perfect. Could you also show a way to do the layout directly in Rhino. Would be very helpful. Thanks.

id reccomend doing line weights on rhino as its much more flexible and easier if u turn on print display

[RM-qzhw]

loved the tutorial! would love if the project files were included so I can try it out alongside your video!

Hi, great tutorial, I don't suppose you know if it's possible to create hatches at the same time as using the 'make 2d drawing' command? would be so cool to have that kind of control then output as an eps / dwg so it can be used in vector documentation ie instruction manuals...

[coccongirl]

CAN I KISS UR BRAIN? You saved me a lot of time. THANKYOUUUU

[Schmidtli]

Hello Tom, why do you set up the lineweigths in a separate programm rather than directly in Rhino? Cheers

[shareknowledge]

any pros and cons doing the line weight and hatches on Adobe Illustrator instead of sticking to Rhino? Will Illustrator option have an edge over Rhino option?
