After sending the picture, I got to thinking that the picture was just 
lame when I could send a 3D drawing that everyone could use.  
Unfortunately, the drawing as shown takes about 5megs.  Somewhat larger 
than the per email limit our list has.

Anyone wishing to participate in the brainstorming, yell and I'll send 
the HeeksCAD drawing.  I can export to other formats, but I haven't had 
good luck with 3D file interchange.  Probably be simpler for everyone to 
install HeeksCAD and then do the file conversion locally.  HeeksCAD is 
really cool.  It is probably only good for simple designs, but it has 
the incredible price of FREE!!.  It is open-source.

The download link is mid-way down the left side.  Linux users can get 
Ubuntu packages at https://m21.hyte.de/blog/heekscad%200.14.1 but I've 
not tested them.  I compiled from source.

There are some good tutorials to get you started on youtube:
