[Plugin] Spherical Helix (Luxodrome) 1.1
-
I don't download!!! Why????
-
The link at the bottom of the original post should take you to Regular Polygon's blog from which you should be able download the plugin.
-
More playing. I should be doing work.

A spherical barber pole! That looks great, Dave.

Simon,
In both cases I used Simple Loft.../
.../I added some grain, haze and the purplish gradient in Picasa.
Clever & Simple as usual dear Dave. Thanks a lot

Update to Version 1.1.
The original version used an approximation to compute the points on the curve -- unfortunately, I couldn't solve the math for the exact equations.
Since then, I came across the equations that do compute the exact values for the coordinates of each point. They are implemented in Version 1.1.The difference in the spherical helix between the two versions is not really noticeable. But, if you are doing something that requires accuracy, then it might be worth downloading this latest version.

Perhaps it is time to bundle your plugins into one folder with a toolbar. I'm sure that CADFather could come up with some pretty good icons.
Thank you for all your hard work.
Kind regards,

Well, I only have 8 or 9 plugins at this point. Once I hit an even dozen, I should release an author-menu type plugin. That would be an option for people who like to organize their plugins by author.
-
That would be good, but a toolbar would be better (well, for me anyway).
What new plugins do you have in the pipeline?
Kind regards,

Thanks for your feedback, Bob. I'll think about your toolbar suggestion -- or, at least, let it simmer on the back burner.
So, what is in the pipeline? Well, when I am not distracted with the 3D printed lamp Design Challenge, I am working on a new project. All I can say at this point is that it does not involve geometry creation -- for once. If I don't hit any snags, I should have a lot more to say about it in a couple weeks.

I look forward to being surprised and delighted.
Kind regards,
bob
