Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to build a spiral pathway.  I have the spiral curve and I have
cross section built - the problem is when I try to use the rail extrusion
tool to produce the path.  I get a path which looks almost right except
for the fact that the end of the path is no longer horizontal its tipped
at a slight angle.  I have the orientation box ticked since if I don't I
end up with a path becomes contracted in some places.

Its funny the tool works fine when the path to be extruded along is
planar like a circle.  I've using the clone tool with an extruded version
of the cross section but I end with a stepping effect which I don't
really want.  Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong or how I can find a
work around?

Thanks,

Christian [e-mail]

P.S.  Does this mailing list still exist - haven't heard anything since
the 7th..... - can someone please email even if they don't have the
solution so that I at least know this is getting through.  Thanks a million.
