Free Maya Cable & Tube Creator

This is my first time learning python. This is also the first time that I made a Maya script.
I was really struggling to make some cables or tubes in Maya, something that is very easy to do in 3dsmax in my opinion.
Sometimes it can be a bit time consuming, so I made this script to make basic tubes a lot easier and faster.

How the script works is very easy;
you draw the shape of your tube with a curve, then with the curve selected, you press the "create pipe" button. Now you can change the settings of the tube in real time.
Same goes for the Cable tab, where you select 2 points created by a basic nurbs circle, and then chose the drop amount for the cable.

I plan to make some adjustments for further updates, but if you already want to try it out yourself for free, you can download it here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/125URtmAKLk3UliJtXmpxp4Oqtue2-M6Q?usp=sharing

Any criticism or feedback is really appreciated!

ps. If you use my script, please make sure your Maya scene is (quick)saved, it is imperative that Maya can sometimes crash using the script!!!!
