Inclined circular ramp

[Devine]

Hi. I’m trying to model an inclined circular ramp using native tools. I found Aaron’s “Modelling a spring” clip on the SU YouTube page and setup what I have (so far) using those methods. The one obvious difference being that I’m not extruding a circle along the path but rather a rectangle.

This is what I have before using “Follow Me”

This is the result after “Follow Me”

Is anyone able to offer some pointers. I’ve modelled the centre line. Does modelling the inside edge or outside edge perhaps solve the problem?

SU file just in case here.

Not in this case. There are several other options. I would use Eneroth Upright Extruder instead of Follow Me.

That did the trick. Thank you.
