I'm just a beginner but I was playing with this today and thinking
about something similar. There is a contour command that can make a
set of outlines a given distance apart around a 3D model, all you then
need to do is rotate them so they are in in the x,y plane (if not
already), put them all at z = 0 and space them apart. You could do
that with a script, it is possible to use the bounding box of each of
these contours to ensure they are positioned and not overlapping.
Because it is a VBscript you can probably do other clever things for
ex****t I don't know yet.
I can certainly recommend the VBScript/RhinoScript workshop handout if
this is something you want to try.
