Hi,

a small simple tutorial for columns with a spiral profile. The helix was made with the Draw Helix 1.3 and the profile only by Push/Pull.

Hi Charly,

Pretty cool. How did you do the columns in the second image.

Thanks,

I have created a plugin that can produce a helix and give it a profile automatically. You can download it here:
