Week4 Material Constraints (catenary arc)

The form modeled in Lab 4 should appear to have alternating "legs" arranged around a central ring. By culling certain points which resets where an angle should make its turn, a leg has a separate path than the neighboring leg. The catenary arc applied to the angles should provide a physical constraint to the form; it prevents an arc from spanning to wide, or high.
