I am a fabricator. We build our models in Rhino, several years ago someone on this forum gave me an amazing script and I lost it. Basically I am modeling parts that are extrusions, and I need to generate a CSV file that has the part name and a length, that is it. The script I found on this forum worked by first having all my parts be blocks, with the block name being the part number, inside the block was the extrusion, and a dimension string which specified the desired length. Additionally, in the properties of the dimension string, it has a “name” which was “dim”. When I built my model, I made all the parts blocks, then I ran the script and it produced a CVS file with all the part numbers and lengths. It worked great! Then I lost it in a hard drive failure. Could anyone help me find it again or point me in the right direction?
