Hello,

I'm trying to model a simple pipe (ie circular profile) with mitres corners.
The centre curve is not continuous in tangency, nor planar.

For a profile other than a circle, I understand that a reference surf or a pulling direction is required.

But for circular profile, there is a simple solution: a mitre plane at every corner. Lot of other softs can do that.

Anyone has an idea?
