      With all due respect to the intent of this subforum, but since Paulfury is in the game, also look at pipe along path and tube along path, which have the capability to make smoother transitions under certain circumstances.

      I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

        I am certainly not against discussing plugins here - I only mean that throwing in two links to some extremely complex plugins will not be helpful for a newbie who (and IF he) does not even know how to use the Follow me tool.

        Certainly these two ones are great (and quite simple to use) plugins but let's see what Paul says (and "where" he is in the learning curve).

          Then why not tell all about the follow me tool?
          Paulfufry:
          I notice you are using a rectangular cross section. The follow me tool comes with a characteristic in that it will rotate that face you are trying to extrude in certain cases. There is some plugins that solve that problem. To check try the round case and see if you still get the "edge" problem

              Mitcorb; as it seems that Paul has not come back to tell us where he is in the learning curve, I relally have no grounds to criticize anyone. Those two plugins you mentioned are really excellent and I would also recommend when we have something more concrete from him.

                  Oops - now as you say, I have just checked that Paul is also on 7 so saved it in v.7 now.

                  (I generally check but as you can guess, often forget) 😳

                      There is an "Upload attachment" tab below the text area you are typing your post. Unfortunately the multiple upload function does not wok so once you selected a file, you have to press the "Add file" button to attach it and then you can add a new one.

                      If, besides images, you could upload an skp as well, that would be even better.

                              Paul,

                              When you save the file from MS Paint, select either the .jpg or .png file-type. I'm guessing the forum does not allow .bmp uploads because they take more band-width than the other formats.

                              Hi
