Glenn,
Check Posts 22, 23, 26 & 27. Those were created exactly exactly as I indicated. I've been using this method for several years. The one thing that you can't do is make a helix of more than a 359 degree arc because then it's a circle that connects the start and end points and doesn't allow different z heights.
OTOH, since I only use 30 degree segments and rotate/replicate them at specific z increments it may be that you are correct. The smaller arc segments may make the distortion be too small to see. IAE, it works for me.Last edited by Joe Carrick; 07-15-2013 at 07:58 PM.
