How to "twist" a square column

Hi,

This is probably simple but I cannot figure out how.

Imagine a tall, thin, square "column". You grab both ends and twist several times.

I create a model to show what I want but it is only twisted 90 degrees and it was built from one "layer" twisted 5 degrees.

Thanks.

Frederick

Hi Frederick, yes like Burr wrote the Transform > Deform > Twist command is good for doing that.

Some info on it here:

Thanks.

For some reason I have never clicked on deform and thus never saw twist.
