| | | I'm working on a program that simlulates strings as braided coils and lots of splines in POV-RAY. I'm tyring to get the catenary curves right so it looks like it's tension is supporting it's weight.... Hopefully, I'll get some time to finish it next (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad)

| | | | (...) Well I just slapped together a primitive to simulate twisted string bits but am not all that pleased with it. The string I have in mind to model will be so tight that a straight line will be fine, no need for catenary curves (although it sure (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad)

| | | | | (...) Perhaps we could also have parts, like the hose segments so you have a "String End" and "String section" (for want of better names). These could possibly be cylinders with a "wound" or "braided" pattern on them, the end section having 1 closed (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad)
