                      That's an idea. I can't think of anymore simple shapes to draw. Definitely would be just for fun.

                          It's a wonderful plug-in, ten minutes to whip up this.

                            What a coincidence that our separate lines of work would meet like that! 😲

                            You are doing things I never imagined people would do with this plugin. πŸ‘

                                    Hi halim,

                                    The top torus with 20 twists had these settings:

                                    settings 20 twists.png

                                    The bottom six tori had these settings, except they each have a different twist parameter varying from 0-5.

                                    settings 0-5 twists.png

                                    P.S. Welcome to the forum!

                                          Hi RP

                                          I downloaded this plugin but it gives me an error message when I try to run it:

                                          I'm using the default torus parameters...

                                          Joel


                                          Torus error message

                                            The error is related to Fredo's AdditionalFolder plugin. Are you running this from a folder other than the default plugins folder?
