Well, the point was to definitely clarify the geometry, and that has been done. I understand it would be a feature enhancement at the very least if it were to exist.
I haven't had the to time to "dig-in-hard" on this one yet, as I'm already drowning in another "one", but I may play with it soon. Still, I'm a neophyte with Parametric modeling so "other's opinions" are like gold to me.
I think some progress might still be made with a very thoroughly ( even painfully ) developed "Shape", even if it has to be used in a "normal" or "rigid" fashion.
The "in which case" might take "forever" at my age, so I still look forward to some sort of usable solution, even if it becomes complex.
And No, the information is not so much for driving the tool in a machine, as it is to simply design the tools in the first place. Eventual stress analysis, actual "space" used, etc..
