Hi, DynamicModule[{gr, v, nf, tt}, Manipulate[ v = {Sin[u], Cos[u], u/10} /. u -> N[t]; nf = #/Sqrt[#.#] &[v]; tt = NullSpace[{nf}][[1]]; gr = ParametricPlot3D[{Sin[u], Cos[u], u/10}, {u, 0, t}]; Graphics3D[{gr[[1]], Line[{{0, 0, 0}, v}], Polygon[{v, v - 0.1*nf + 0.05*tt, v - 0.1*nf - 0.05*tt}]}] , {t, 1, 20}] ] ??
