Hello,
I am creating a monster truck and the roll cage is a lot of skinned curves for the tubes. How can i connect the end points of each curve to the other curve so when i change the size of one curve, the others attached to that particular curve follow. It is a little inconvienent to shorten one curve and have to move all the other curves to line them up again. Also at the connction of each tub to another tub i am trying to generate a welding appearence. How can i give the nurbs curves the properties of a metaball to blend them together at the joint.

Thanks,
Mozzenus

You could try combining the curves with something like a Fuse or Facet and then use a Poly Wire SOP.

Thanks,
When i use this setup, the joint does not stay intact in a bend. Instead of a curve and skining a circle along it, any other ideas on how to creat bars for the roll cage with bends.
