Pete, I had a bit of time at lunch so I did a quick video of how I would go about a 2d plan like you are showing. Hope this helps.
Draw a plane, group it, use it as a canvas, delete it then finish up your plan.[flash=853,505:32x4el71]http://www.youtube.com/v/Pmc-hJzqhl0&fs=1[/flash:32x4el71]

but one question...how did you do the line extensions when doing the intersections for the hips and valleys?
I dont get the inference.
-
Start your line, hover over the existing line then hold down shift. This will extend the line allowing you to reference another point on the drawing. Or start your line, move it along an axis and hold shift, again it will continue along that same path allowing you to reference another point.

dang it i knew that!

There is a more detailed explpaination on the GSU videos.

The screen capture video worked so flawlessly..what software is that?
-
I use Hypercam2
http://www.hyperionics.com/hc/Make sure you change the keyboard shortcuts (Hot Keys) because they can interfere with your SU ones and mess up your video. I found that out the hard way.
After taking the video I used Windows Live Movie Maker to add text and edit it. Then uploaded to Youtube.
Both Hypercam and WLMM are free.

That was astounding how quickly you did that. The same workflow for me takes 20 minutes. Thanks a million.
