I created these 2 sweep components for making sweep easier and more advanced.

1. Handaz MSSWEEP
You just draw your profile curve on the top view and the movement and rotation of the profile will be done automatically.

Inputs:
-Profile Curve - input a curve
-Rail Curve - input a curve
-Rail Start - input a number from 0 to 1
-Profile origin - input a number. 0 = center of profile ; 1 to x = midpoints ; x to y = vertices; This will decide the orientation of your profile on the rail curve 
-Rotation in degrees - input a number in degrees; This will decide the rotation of your profile on the RS plane

Output:
-Sweep Brep

2. Handaz PLNSWEEP

Inputs:
-Profile Curve - input a curve
-Rail Curve - input a curve
-Rail Start - input a number from 0 to 1
-Profile origin - input a number. 0 = center of profile ; 1 to x = midpoints ; x to y = vertices; This will decide the orientation of your profile on the rail curve 
-Rotation in degrees - input a number in degrees; This will decide the rotation of your profile on the RS plane
-Plane - input a plane; Choose your desired plane for the start of the Sweep. If the rail is a vertical curve, you can just use XY-plane; if it's a horizontal rail you can use YZ or XZ plane or just use the MSSWEEP component and it will create the plane for you.

Output:
-Sweep Brep

To install:
extract "Handaz MSSWEEP.zip" to the grasshopper User Objects folder usually at:
"C:\Users\[YOUR USER NAME]\AppData\Roaming\Grasshopper\UserObjects"
