How to make a phone cord

1) Draw a smooth curve




2) Draw line
3) Create an array of lines using the Array-Circular command with vertical step option




4) Make a spiny curve using the Array-Curve command




5) Hide the curve and loft the spines




6) Extract edge (select the edge, press Ctrl and drag it)




7) Draw a profile curve and sweep it along spiral




8) That's all folks.... hehe...
Of course, it isn't perfect, but MoI's commands tend to be funny like Lego...
