I want to create a 3D spline, to design a 3D pipe (exhaust)  
May we create face or surface, and intersect them?  
See drawing attached. Sorry for the strange language

Good tutorial here on 3d tube/pipe

> Here’s an example. I selected both beginning and ending circle edges. Note at the bottom lower right of the screen there are measurements- deltaX, Y, and Z (shown just before the transition). It gets a little more complicated when the two pipes are at different angles to each other but still doable.

Sketch out your curves and project them onto the curved surface.

Sweep the projected curve.

You will be able adjust the pipe afterwards as well.

Many thanks, after a couple weeks, see the final pipe
