The Tabs in TATARA:

ROKURO

ROKURO is a Japanese turning lathe, a potter's wheel. ROKURO mode makes a solid lathe-type object.

BITMAP

The control points can be adjusted in 1 pixel increments by changing the numeric value in a text box.

MAGE mode makes shapes similar to bent pipes such as a neon tube.
*Shapes using a combination of TOKOROTEN and ROKURO can be made.
However, these may not be entirely satisfactory.
