I have created a profile of a book that includes the outer cover, inner cover and pages and was wondering if its possible to ‘loft’ (use the skin node?) to join them together in a particular order to then form my book.
Hopefully the attached file makes sense, but if there is an easier way to approach this please let me know.
Thanks

My aim is to learn Houdini well enough to create procedural assets to incorporate into a game production environment, so I am using the polycount throne room challenge [polycount.com] as an opportunity to do so.
Obviously once I become proficient enough within Houdini, I imagine that you can save huge amounts of time on creating iterations of the same object such as a book.
The aim of the book is mainly a prop to be displayed on a table/shelf, so I require the ability to alter the height, width and depth of the cover and pages. If its possible to add an open state (open from the middle), then I would definitely like to incorporate such functionality into the asset.
