James,

I would look into using flexible hose in the Tube and Pipe command.  Have you used tube and pipe before?

Within the T & P commands is a hose style that might fit what you are looking for.  If not within the T & P styles editor you can copy an existing style that is close and tweak it to be wqhat you want.
