I'm working my way through Rohan Dalvi's rocketship tutorial.

I've modeled the first rocket and I'm now creating the second, more simple to animate version.

However, every time I connect and activate the revolve node at the end of the network, Houdini crashes on me.

Any ideas?

The file is attached.

I'm using version 15.5.523
2013 MacBookPro

It is the MacbookPro. Review the minimum hardware page.

You can limit crashing on OSX by turning off all viewport material options under Display (D-KEY).
