Want to create a mesh like in this example: [https://threejs.org/docs/#api/en/geometries/TubeGeometry](https://threejs.org/docs/#api/en/geometries/TubeGeometry)

**BUT…**

…it needs to based on an edgy bezier curve _without_ folding the mesh. Should look like this:

How to resolve this (mesh not curve)?

_Not sure what you need exactly. But maybe this can help._🙂

Profiled Contour Geometry MultiMaterial is also included in the [Addon to create special / extended geometries](https://discourse.threejs.org/t/addon-to-create-special-extended-geometries/1855) see [https://github.com/hofk/THREEg.js](https://github.com/hofk/THREEg.js) .

There you can simply delete all not needed geometry to get a slim tool.
