Creating cables

Recommended Posts

Hi.I have two opposite faces and the intention is to create a curve between these two but I cant get my head around it.Trying to build small cables from one geo to another from faces that I specify. All I need to figure out is how to get those curves, then I can use a sweep sop to build the skin for the cables.Any ideas how I would go about doing this?

Here is one idea, but it depends on how procedural it needs to be.

Another idea could be to pair prims and draw targeted vectors and then make them into curves. Haven't tried it though, so there may be some tricky probs with it.

Wow Macha thanks.That is exactly what I was trying to achieve.So the 'prim' is what makes it happen.Good I will read up on it.One thing in did notice was that the polywire geo is sticking out of the box at one end while on the other it is correctly lining up on the face.How can I fix it?
