I have some problems to create a simple circular profile path. After that I want to use a helix ramp dressup.
But every (edge|face) profile functions generates a strange wrong path that has wrong diameter and does not respect CW/CCW direction.
I only know that kind of path used by 3D-printers

Here is the outer path of the highlighted profile and here is the simulation, where you see the wrong diameter. I remember there was at least a thread in the past about wrong diameter but I could not find it

Bye
