D'oh! Must have missed that on the read-through. Boy, is my face red.

However, the question remains--what if I wanted a curve with a
different amplitude or wavelength? This template idea crossed my mind,
but how to generate such a curve? Can Autocad do it? I've just
received a copy of Autocad 2005, but really don't have much clue as to
how to actually use it. I've bought the "for dummies" book, but
haven't sat down and dug in yet.



You could plot points on paper for 0 to 90 degrees,
connect the dots with a french curve, cut it out and use it
as a template, flipping it from right-to-left and upside down
as needed.

Get Mastering Autocad by George O'mura. Autocad 2005 is a state of the art
cad program. You need a good source of info.
You probably can find a lisp routine using Google that will draw it.
I suspect Mathcad could draw it.
