Greetings,

I am trying to model a conical spring which is fallowing a spline profile ending almost tangent to the axis of rotation.
The spring will be visible from above, as a result I would need the horizontal pitch to be constant. I have be using the variable pitch, but it seems that there should be a simpler and more precise way to do so.

Much Obliged
