please turn on subtitles for the explanation. The new stamp type allows user to create a small group of items and pack it under a cage shape when stamp it will use a cage shape to do the boolean and contents can be positioned or rotated after the stamp. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhSqeupwPOA
To add visual interest, I like to create extra cables using a duplicated curve that retains the original shape while introducing randomness.
combined with Maya's Sweep Node,
enables quick and captivating cable design with minimal effort.

I added a new arc mode which I use sometimes. It will take two points,
around 1/3 and 2/3 of the edge loop, and create a smoother curve.
Average mode - will keep the same shape,
Arc mode - smooth shape

After a long fight, my brain almost shut down.
really hard to satisfy various scenarios.
The tool has been improved a lot, which can handle more shapes.
Now it can handle both cylinder and cone shapes,
with/ without a cap, or mix with triangle/n-gon cap.
diamond shape ( two sharp ends) also support now.
However, the quad base cone will mess up a script that I still don't know how to solve, but in the real-life task maybe it's not so much a problem.
Normally we want to increase subdivision more than reduce subdivision.
I am sure there are still many bugs, as the current code is super messy.
need to take more time to review it at some stage.
Still thinking one good name, easy to remember and easy to understand,
Re-Revolve ?
