Thats a good idea, but wanted to use NURBS, maybe I'm just being stubborn, I
think the end result will look a little better. Perhaps I am not going about
doing it the right way.  Maybe this will help.

edge2path.tsx, and the weird sweeps, but found out that if I click the 'bend'
button on the tsx properties then it will follow the spline and curve as it
goes along, not keeping the same plane as the extruded face.

This may be what you are wanting to do.

edge2path.tsx is a free plug-in and is available @ primitive itch.


I don't want to use macrosweep because I need to get "smooth" spiral sitches,
and I know macrosweep could possibly have a problem with the "curves"
