Hi Tiago, You are duplicating functions that live in OCC.Utils.Construct You're probably looking for the sew_shapes.
Here's the doxygen entry for BrepBuilderAPI_MAkeShell: Describes functions to build a shape corresponding to the skin of a surface. Note that the term shell in the class name has the same definition as that of a shell in STEP, in other words the skin of a shape, and not a solid model defined by surface and thickness. If you want to build the second sort of shell, you must use BRepOffsetAPI_MakeOffsetShape. A shell is made of a series of faces connected by their common edges. If the surface is C2 continuous, the shell will contain only 1 face. If the surface is not C2 continuous, MakeShell breaks the surface down into several faces which are all C2 continuous and which are connected along the non-regular curves on the surface. The resulting shell contains all these faces. Construction of a Shell from a non-C2 continuous Surface A MakeShell object provides a framework for: - defining the construction of a shell, - implementing the construction algorithm, and - consulting the result. Warning The connected C2 faces in the shell resulting from a decomposition of the surface are not sewn. For a sewn result, you need to use BRepOffsetAPI_Sewing. For a shell with thickness, you need to use BRepOffsetAPI_MakeOffsetShape. -jelle On Jul 1, 2010, at 9:51 PM, Thiago Franco Moraes wrote: > Hi all, > > From a list of triangles I'm creating a bunch of TopoDS_Face using > BRepBuilderAPI_MakeFace, above a function I'm using to do this: > > def make_face(points): > pairs = zip(points, points[1::]+[points[0]]) > wire = BRepBuilderAPI_MakeWire() > for v1, v2 in pairs: > e = BRepBuilderAPI_MakeEdge(gp_Pnt(*v1), gp_Pnt(*v2)) > wire.Add(e.Edge()) > > print "Returning Face" > face = BRepBuilderAPI_MakeFace(gp_Pln(gp_Ax3(gp().XOY())), > wire.Wire()) > > return face > > Now is necessary to join those TopoDS_Face and create TopoDS_Shell.
