Making a seashell

[rikdiculous]

Hi, I'm trying to make a spiring seashell using the duplicator wizard. I got the idea from a reply on an old posting from the man that seems to know it all on this site (Rodney). I've been messing with the wizard but so far cant get anything remotely close to a tight spiral. I'm confusd as to what all the settings on the wizard means and how to control them to get a quality shape. If anyone has made something like this before feel free to share what settings you used. Thanks for looking. -PM

I haven't used the duplicator wizard myself, but here's a couple of links you could look at:

 

Snail Shell Thread

 

ftp://ftp.hash.com/pub/movies/Duplicator.mov (33mb, and you probably need the techsmith ensharpen codec installed to be able to watch it.)

I used the technique with the duplicator in the link posted by Caroline to create my avatar. If you play with it for a while you can get some really cool shells.
