Need help..

Hello wondering if anyone could help me create a curved pole (refer to shape of arco lamp) with a tapered edge - Where the pole begins to curve there is detailing on it which is similar to a straw. (refer to image of straw) The pole is made up of cast alumminium segments however for the purpose of modelling i am trying to do it all in one peice. If you are unable to help me with the straw like detail, help with creating the curved + tapered pole would be much appreciated. Hopefully i haven't confused anything with this big long speal!

 

Thanks, R.

The curved tapered shape might be achieved using the Loft command.

 

As for the "flexible" segment I think there was a similar type of discussion about this recently which had to do with the Polar Array command. The thread was posted within the last few days.
