That won't work in Carrara.

Unfortunately, the best way to accomplish this in Carrara is in the Vertex Modeler which isn't part of Carrara Basics.
But you can "sorta" do it in the Spline Modeler by drawing a "half-u" shape on the cross section plane and then using the "Torus" preset to make that object round. Try it.

Many of us have already lost our sanity so we will enjoy the company.

Carrara 3 is discounted and available online for under $90. Santa can probably afford that. The Vertex Modeler in version 3 is quite capable.
