[Request for Plugin] Safety Railings
- 
 Much of my work involves design and modification of facilities in which there are safety railings at edges, around cut-outs up stairs/slopes. They are of varied kinds (see attachment): - 
Contiguous β straight - Contiguous β multiple directions
- Curved
- Round corners with and without separate connectors
- Sharp corners
- With and without lower flat safety toe plate
- Painted Brushed aluminum
- Combined horizontal and slanted (for stairs)
 It would be very helpful if a plugin were available that would draw these railings based on input of:
 
- 
Line(s): straight, arc, welded multi-directional straight, straight and sloped drawn in the model - 
Select the line 
- 
Open the plugin and select from the following options: 
- 
Tube diameter (2β or 2.5β, default = 2β) 
- 
Railing height (default = 36β) with intermediate railing at 1/2 the top railing height 
- 
Number of intermediate verticals (evenly spaced) 
- 
Sharp or round corners 
- 
With or without connectors 
- 
With or without toe-plate 
- 
Material: Brushed Aluminum or Dark Red

 Any Ruby guru interested?
