Howdy:)

anf then a second object bending it to the right.
Any easy suggestions?:)

Thanks in advance!

This is done with the Lathe tool, this is found in the "model" tool group.
Once you select this tool you must pick a face to bend after you pick a face
right click the Lathe button to bring up its properties.
Next set how much of a bend you want and how many segments you want for it.
Next left click the Lathe button and it will add from the face you picked
and create the curve you want.
Note: try not to use to many segments or it will create lag in your world,
use how ever many makes it look good without causing any lag in the world.

There is also a Tutorial build into True Space that shows just how to do
this.

You can do them all at once by holding the Ctrl key while selecting faces.
Your object ends are one big face it may be better to do it that way rather
then selecting all the sides.
