Curve | Curve | Resulting helix |
After creating the node, connect the center point of the helix to the first port. Connect the pitch of the helix to the second port, height to the third, big radius to the fourth, small radius to the fifth, direction to the sixth, and a boolean that makes helix the left hand to the seventh port. On the output port, you will receive the resulting helix.
