Personally I doubt you want to get involved with NURBs.  Your tapers
are very gradual and the change in slope at each transition point is
going to be tiny.  I bet you could cut it with straight lines and it
would be absolutely impossible to see the transition points no matter
how closely you look.

Keep it simple, use straight lines ;-)
