Would it not be easier to do this with a texture map and then just model the
end piece.

 Subject: [Carrara] wrapping a flat ribbon?


 I am trying to "wrap" a flat ribbon around a pole (think maypole).  Of
 course the end should go outward away from the pole.  That is the least
 of my problems.  LOL  I'm trying to do it in the vertex modeler, and
 although I can get it around the pole like I want, it doesn't curve
 around correctly.  What I mean by that, is as the ribbon turns around
 the pole, it doesn't keep one side up against the pole like it would in
 the real world.  If this sounds totally crazy, I can upload a screen
 shot so you can have a visual.

 Anyway, any gurus out there who can help me with this and tell me where
 I'm going wrong, or how to fix it?

 Thanks,  Naomi
