Min Soo's Pyramids:
The Pyramid:

"The Pyramid" was produced using the following Maple
commands:
> x:=(1+cos(t))*cos(t)*t;
> y:=(1-cos(t))*sin(t)*t;
> z:=48*Pi-t;
x := (1 + cos(t)) cos(t) t
y := (1 - cos(t)) sin(t) t
z := 48 Pi - t
> with(plots):
> spacecurve([x,y,z],t=0..48*Pi,numpoints=1000,
> axes='NORMAL');
Twisted Pyramid:

"Twisted Pyramid" was produced using the following Maple
commands:
> x:=(1+cos(t))*cos(t)*t;
> y:=(1-cos(t))*sin(t)*t;
> z:=(48*Pi-t)*sin(t);
x := (1 + cos(t)) cos(t) t
y := (1 - cos(t)) sin(t) t
z := (48 Pi - t) sin(t)
> with(plots):
> spacecurve([x,y,z],t=0..48*Pi,numpoints=1000,
> axes='NORMAL');
