Hi there,

I am wanting to create a striped pole that would be used in a Christmas build
as a "North Pole". I wanted to create the stripes angled rather than
straight and then possibly put a light brick in the top surrounded by transparent/translucent
blue bricks. However, I am struggling to create the stripes in a cube.

Can anyone recommend the best way to do this, or suggest which brick number(s)
I could use?

Many thanks!
