creating woven / braided metal tubes from wires

What is your email address? I'll send the one I just made. It's not perfect, but it might give you a better understanding of it.

You could try to use a Helix and sweep a rectangle shape about that for the bradied material. Depending on how many "starts" the braided hose would have, you might have to create 5-25 helixes, which would be very taxing on your system.

I think if you are trying to show the actualy braids, it might be beyond SWX at this time, especially if you are thinking about routing this hose up, around and through a part or assembly.

Scott, I'd be interested in seeing what you have.

I forgot to add...if anyone would like to see this "braided hose" please just send me an email and I'll send back to you.
