Hi,

I didnt try anything..i am just saying from the top of my head..hope it gives you some better idea/direction. If not please excuse me..

After creating a block for the outermost cylinder, keep splitting the edges so that you have one block for each smaller pipes. You can do this by splitting two adjacent edges of the original block twice each and then select the four edges together and associate it to the pipe.

Hope it gives you some idea

bye
