The CurvedShapes External Workbench Icon

Overview

Curved Shapes is a FreeCAD external workbench that creates 3D shapes from 2D curves.

Recommended installation is through the FreeCAD Addon Manager via the Tools → Addon Manager

Note: for manual installation see Addon Manager#Manual_installation

CurvedArray: Creates an array and resizes the items in the bounds of one or more hull curves.
CurvedSegment: Interpolates between two 2D curves. The interpolated curves can be resized in the bounds of some hullcurves.
InterpolatedMiddle: Interpolates a 2D shape into the middle between two 2D curves. The base shapes can be connected to a shape with a sharp corner.
SurfaceCut: Cuts a surface to get the outline curve or a face. This tool is similar to Cross-Sections in the Part workbench, but it is fully parametric and has an option to reduce the complexity of the output curve. It tries to remove overlapping edges.

HortenHIX: A python script that creates the shape of the Horten Ho 229 (also called Horten H IX), a stealth fighter that has been build in Germany in 1944.
FlyingWingS800: A python script that creates the shape of a flying wing RC model.
