[@xoxo-yf2ex]

thank you it helps a lot

[@Lessen0]

awesome awesome guide that very clearly walked through what to do and why/how, tho as lichterloh said in another comment 3 months ago, the deletion process can be done more quickly by Joining all the paths once you're at the step where you have two spirals nested in each other, then deleting one of the spirals. (tho having actually done this now, after writing that comment, i realize there's an added step of separating the two middle points from each other after the Join, and I don't actually know the fastest way to do that since I'm only somewhat familiar with Illustrator. But I guess if your intent is to 100% get rid of the extra spiral, then you just need to delete the first point in the spiral to separate it from the other spiral, and then select the rest of the offending spiral with the V selector and delete it.)

[@mdoyledesigns]

Thank you for this! Very good teacher!

[@ForeverDansky]

Hey thanks Melissa, that’s very kind of you 🙂

[@horacioaguerocerda7219]

i love you dude!

[@carlosescope]

Thanks!!

[@Zinjo]

To those with issues where the first line snaps perfectly but every other line is skewed: Go back in the polar grid tools' settings by left clicking on the canvas, and make certain the skew on both dividers is **0%**, if it's even 1% it'll all be messed up. This fix worked for me, I think illustrator might set it to 1% by default or something

[@joseluizgoncalves1184]

Awesome! Thanks! :)

[@boatboat2809]
