Hi Jeanny
Q1: Prior to bridging you need to delete the 4 oblique / twisted quadrilaterals which have been created by the axial rotation of the sweep. This is a bit awkward as there is just a very small gap. If you miss one of the quadrilaterals, the bridge won´t find any anchors (I guess).
Q2: You have to fiddle with the approximation angle of the circular axis of the Möbius torus. 5° gives buckles, 1° gives buckles but 2° seems just right. Aka the Goldilocks principle:tongue:

Hi Helmut
It must be 6:40 PM where you are. What are you still working this late for? Didn't you hear the quitting whistle?
Glad you are still on the forum though and thanks for the new information.
Probably by the time I post my new questions you will be sleeping beside your Goldilocks.

It's only 12:40 PM here in the city of icicles. I don't have to start checking for bed comfort for quite a few hours yet.

When you read this I'll be sound asleep because of the time change on my side of the "Cube".
I think I finally figured it out.
This is the best I could come up with.
Are there better settings I could have used?
Thanks again Helmut and Frank

Good morning (I think, I got it right this time around :redface:
Looks very good and smooth to me.
And now for an advanced animated doodle with a torus knot
Servus from Vienna:razz:
PS: correction, it´s not a torus knot but a toroidal helical loop

:icon_thumbup: :icon_thumbup: :icon_thumbup: O-00-000! Sensational! Captivating!
An ANIMATED Toroidal Helical Loop all decked out in a blue radiant shader! Brilliant!
When I tried to render your jas file the png I attached to this post shows what I get. The image in the camera background is missing.
I tried to remove the Question mark image and replace it with another and I still get the Question mark background.
The camera is not locked. I don't know how else to correct this.
Can you please help me?

The second question mark is from the missing HDR-image.

It really doesn´t matter when the reflective part in the material isn´t enabled.

As usual, all we get from this Helmut guy is sloppy and fragmentary crap :frown: :evil:
On his behalf, I apologize and supply the script (courtesy of an unknown contributor, Herbert Loser 2006) for helical curves on a torus surface.
This works with the current C3D version and Mac OS Yosemite. You can fiddle useful params (number of loops, radii, what nots).
Sorry, my scripts are organized differently in sundry subfolders, so I can´t just upload a .jas.
As an apology, I donate a very small nanotube

Thanks for the advise Frank. Goes to show how little I know and how easily I get confused.
I'll take your what you call sloppy and fragmentary crap any day! Please keep it coming! To me it's all Gold!
I get ideas and learn something from every post.
Thanks for another Golden Goodie.

I used to think I was a smart dude. And then I peruse posts like this. Helmut, you take my brain to the outer rim of conceptual visualization. And Frank you seem to make child's play out of alternative, efficient ways to model. And all this is possible because of Martin.
I am in awe of y'all.
