Ah, conditional lines! I didn't even think about those. Thanks! I'll look into
it and see if I can figure it out. I'll also learn how to use Show All Edge
Lines. By the way, the part is common to 3 of the large good guys of Knights
Kingdom.
I wish all you folks to take a rip at anything I do. My intention is to teach
the techniques to kids ages 12 - 18. In my experience, kids will blow up every

figure out how to prep kids, then my joy is full!
Off to learn all about conditional lines!
