    $\begingroup$ Crunching in 45 in for rotation z on creation is one way to "fast" fix. Could you elaborate on how to set reduce step size, eg how and why it needs to be 2x height for consistent step size? Suppose I've gone down the wheel re-invention path somewhat with answer. As mentioned for an irregular base bending the regular primitive whilst keeping insets consistent could prove difficult for some. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @batfinger I'll have to check on that later, not at the computer right now, never actually used this before this answer. Keeping insets consistent is a frequent problem I encounter too often when dealing with bezier curves bevel objects also. When the "curvature radius" is shorter than the section dimensions it leads to self intersections that are hard to deal with. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @batFINGER It's twice the height because there are ledges on both opposite sides. $\endgroup$
