It sounds like a lot more than it really is. If you break it down into the
steps, they just logically followed one after the other. And it wasn't hard
to do at all.

Yes! I find most of the work is parsing the problem into 'doable chunks'.
The 'chunks' do themselves after that, almost.

Ever since then I've tried to think of other ways to use that
table/scripting capability, but I've never come up with anything
significant. I did plot all the elevations in my back yard on a six-foot
grid, and I made a contour map of it in Rhino to calculate how much dirt I
needed to re-grade it, but that was hardly a sensible use of the capability.

Cool!

I replaced 30' of fence in the back yard by following my Rhino 3D sketch.

It was neat having to visit the lumber yard only once, after I got over
the queasy feeling of having to do work instead of just drive around.
