: Much thanks for info on your design changes. what was your thinking in the
: only stretch the forms for the middle section?
I did that too. Main rationale: it's a lot easier to move forms you've already plotted out an additional 3/4" from each other than to scale all the offsets and re-plot the end forms. Not that it's impossible, but it's not convenient. I think you could put the offsets into an Excel spreadsheet and have it spit out the "stretched" end form offsets with relative ease. If I had my offsets in a spreadsheet in the first place, I'd have done that, but I plotted points directly in cad, so I didn't have that luxury. I also couldn't do a 1-axis scaling in the CAD package I was using. I have ACAD 2000 now, so it would be easy! heh heh

Hey--it's still cold here--somebody send us some of that 90*F heat! I need my rolling pond to warm up in anticipation of the launch of my new boat!
