Example - Impossible Object made possible in Houdini

In this example, a ramp parameter is created in the point wrangle node to control pscale which is used in polywire
This example was inspired by the impossible object video on you tube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQxiHR3JOZ4
Lighting can quickly reveal the illusion
The object was created using tubes and boxes, a clip node, and a wrangle node to control the size of the tube as a way to "whittle" the stick down in Houdini
By clicking on the "slider" icon, it creates the parameter
Which can then be used in the polywire node
Nodes used: tube, box, transform, polywire, pointwrangle, clip, line
