Re: [Visualpython-users] A Pipe

Not frame, which is a mechanism for grouping objects together.

You can get a corrugated pipe by stacking a bunch of rings:

for x in arange(-1, 1, 0.1):
     ring(pos=(x,0,0), radius=0.5, thickness=0.1, color=color.cyan)

To get a nice clean pipe at present would require using the faces object to 
do it all yourself (by splitting the object into a large number of triangles).
