Now, can you explain how you use EXCEL to create the models?...........
When I design a model I first define the parts on the 3-view. The 2D measurements of these parts are then run through an excel table that transforms them into measurements for the 3D parts. (for example a cone would become a section of a cricle) The table contains several trigonometric formulae.

That is all.
