Paul,  thanks for the 3 D rotary.  I was able to open it in Vector
Works (Iges) and view in wire frame.   I could not render it but who
cares, wire frame is what I wanted.  Being able to take off sets of the
2D views is useful.  I think I can change the working plane and take
measurements of any view but I have not tried that yet.  I've only had
Vector Works for about five  years--eventually I will get around to
figuring it out.  It's modeling capacity is said to rival Rhino and the
people who use it like having cad and modeling in the same package. I
am just happy to be able to open the iges file.     Thanks again,
  Jerry

I sent you that box beam on purpose :)
Rhino has good dimensioning but once you use it for awhile there is no need
as someone receiving a 3D drawing automatically has the dimensions.
