Hi Brian, here is a new command to create shapes like that, it's called "ToroidalHelix".

To install it, download the attached ToroidalHelix.zip file, unzip it and copy the 2 files inside of it to the \commands subfolder inside MoI's main installation folder. Then to trigger it you have to set up a keyboard shortcut with the command ToroidalHelix on it.



Radius1 is the radius from the origin to the middle of the torus part, radius2 is the radius of the thickness of the torus.

You can then use this shape as a rail path to create a sweep along it like this:



I hope that might help with what you wanted to make!
