Hi,  
I am trying to find the _“middle point” position_ in a deformed mesh that kind of looks like a pipe/cord. _(The position between Vertex and Opposite - see drawing)_

I am thinking that finding two points opposite each other on the mesh and then place a spline point in the middle of these two might be the way to go. But I am currently having some trouble finding the point I call _Opposite_ (see drawing).

I got the location for the _Vertex_ by looping the mesh vertices and compare them all to the _Bounds Min Location_, and then saved the one that was closest to it. But I don’t know how I will get the _Opposite point_ because the meshs vary in rotation and some might be placed on the side.

**Any tips or ideas?**

This is how I got the closest _Vertex_ to the _Bound min Location_:

I tried to get the opposite by doing this:

Depending on how the mesh bounding box looks like.  
But its not flawless and it does not get the closest vertex but a positing close to it.
