Hi there. I'm making this fantasy plant which is huge and coming out from the ground.
But I want some umm, what do you call them, wires? to go around the plant. I used the Curve-on-surface way to do the CV curve for the wire, but I want to make some object out of it, is it possible to make it like a cylnder growing up along the plant. I won't animate it, I just want something go around it.
Here is a pic of the wire, and I want it to be some thick cylinder or whatever.

and here is the whole plant thingy with the curve around it

the whole plant shall be bent later on too.

If this is not possible, is there some other way to do this?

I hope I have explained good enough, my english really sucks when it comes to explaing things.
