Tubes and Pipes

I have seen a lot of people incorporate tubes and pipes into their sculpts and most seem to have pretty simple topology for how twisty complex the shapes can be. So is there a good tutorial to show a fast way to create and manipulate tubes into my characters.
Any help would be great.
Thanks

Watch the Insert Meshtutorials in ZClassroom.

Also, you can download some of my corrugated hoses here (post#130)

and, if you want pipe fittings, you can get them here (post#235)

and many more in the Insert Multi Mesh Repository, and a lot already incuded in the Brush palette with ZBrush 4R5.

all of these were made using Insert Mesh.

I found the following tutorial by Badking very useful for learning how to do pipes using the insert mesh brush.
