Center funnel on the model origin then execute plugin. Pitch is the vertical distance between start and finish of each turn.

Hey Mitch! thanks for replying, I'm trying to get the plugin to work, but when I execute it nothing happens. Any ideas on what I could be doing wrong?

Hello Sketchucation forum!

Essentially I need to wrap a helix line up the side of this funnel, so I can use that contour to create a spiral staircase from the bottom to the top. I'm now at the point where I'm lost in the library of extensions I've installed trying to achieve this, and cant seem to figure it out from the youtube tutorials, so I'm reaching out to the community!

I would very much appreciate if anyone could help me out with this. Also Very open to any tips on the right extensions. The shape of the stairs will have to change as they go up as the overhang becomes more flat on the top of the funnel.

thank you for any suggestions!
