Deepak,

Try to find somewhere a copy of GDL Cookbook ... it will help you no end! I know that there are quite a few copies in India, but that does not mean a lot, I know ...

Great memory, Thomas!

And the Tubes are at http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/sbe/cookbook/CB4_Web/tubes01/Tubes01.html

One piece of advice for Deepak: stick to the DNC rule of having the origin go back to 0,0,0 after you finish and assembly. Also, make sure that you title your parts in the script. This will enable you to revise and enhance the object, if you wish or need to.

Good luck!

Thanks!
I think the cookbook 3.99 has an efficient interface. Problem is that I don't know how complete it is, that is if it really contains all the Cookbook 3 material or if something is missing along with what DNC planned to have on version 4.

You might still be able to get the version 3 PDF by following his instructions on this page:

If you exit the 3.99 online version and follow the links you will get to this link

BTW thanks a lot David! This is a real help
