Sure, but it doesn't look as nice. I designed my code so that the wire would
bend appropriately, meaning on the thinnest side.
Here is the twisting result.

I like. But isn't it known/also known as the 'Triquetra' Knot?
I'm interested to know where 'Tre *foil*' originates from?

Thank you. I will have some pov time tonight, so I will finish cleaning up
the macro and post it tomorrow. I will include the trefoil function as an
