I actually built a styrofoam model to convince/teach
myself where everything needed to ride/sit. I used a
styrofoam cup, coffee stirrers for trusses and tape
for my model. Then I scaled up in a program called
Canvas. It's not autoCAD. I've never really layed
hands on AutoCAD. (Someday when there's more than 24
hrs in the day, perhaps I can tackle that one.)  ;o)
