I am relatively new to vtk, and Im trying to create a cylindrical surface
of which i can control all of the data points on that surface (move points
around to make the "tube" thin in some areas, thicker in other areas).  I
am having a hard time trying to get the vtkStructuredGrid to work, and Im
not even sure that is the data structure that one should use in order to
make a cylindrical surface.  can anyone point me in the right direction on
how to make a surface such as this and maybe some links to some examples
or so?  Thanks in advance!

Cheers,

Greg
