Creating a steel bar that needs to be twisted so I started from a single square that was slightly twisted then stacked one on the other. I like the outcome but is there a better method without hiding and softening the sides to give it a better more realistic look ? I tried hiding and softening and that seems to be somewhat of an option but is there a better method?
Now days I would use the Helix tool in the Curve Maker extension which you can get in the Extension Warehouse.

If you are feeling lazy.
