Shapes3D V1.9.1 now includes a new shape, the BezTube, This is a tube that follows the path of a 3D Bezier curve and can vary in diameter along it's length. Two examples of its use can be seen at
Knot and
Borg Travel.
If you want to experiment and create your own Bezier tubes then I have created an editor for anyone to use. Once you have designed your tube there is an option to copy the code to the clipboard to paste in your own Processing sketch so you can see it independantly of the editor. The sketch code produced requires the PeasyCam library to view the tube from any angle. NOTE: This feature is only available if you download the application available from the Editor's webpage since the applet is unsigned.
Click for the BezTube Editor.
