At a recent Houdini meetup, Luc Morroni (instagram.com/l.mrni) came up with quite an interesting tutorial topic: Procedural waffle structures, like the ones used in Sevilla's Metropol Parasol (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metropol_Parasol).
Seems easy enough at first I thought - but as always, the devil's in the details. In this case in the cutouts where the parts slot into each other. So enjoy hearing me waffle on (see what I did there?) about creating those types of structures and making them intersect realistically(ish).
