Tube Question

Ive been messing around and been wondering, whats the best way to get a rounded smaller tube than you would get with the donut? just keep resizing the donut till i get the size right? or would i be better off using one of the tube meshes?

Doing To Sphere then scaling along the y axis does some interesting things to the donut.

You could try using shrink/flatten on the donut. Also you could create a circle mesh and spin to create your own donut.

Go with Cyborg Dragon’s suggestion ([Alt][S] btw), it works really well
