Hi , I am doing modeling in Houdini , i had done all the watch , how was it ?
now I wan't to add a wire or chain for the watch , but I lag here , I need some suggestion about the mind idea to build the wire / chain modeling.
So, my question is , what is the concept to use houdini to do model like wire / chain ??
(for example : tell me some node to use or helpful expression or any tips)
thanks for reply
cheers

the base tool for both is Curve SOP or you can work with any curve in houdini
then to make wire from it you can either sweep circle along it and skin it or use PolyWire SOP or Wireframe SOP
for chain you will probably need Resample SOP and Copy SOP
see attached file as an example
