Sweeping and changing cross-sections.
Sweeping and changing cross-sections.
(OP)
I'm trying to accurate model the bend of a tube. The cross section of the tube initially starts out as a circle in the straight portions of the tube. It becomes more of an oval in the bend, and has peak ovality at the 45 degree mark in the bend. How should I go about doing this?

That's actually what I ended up doing...and it worked pretty well once I got the correct closing points.
