Thank you, Liam I will give that a shot.
From perusing the site, I've not seen many requests for furniture as old as what I'm asking. But who knows.

Each lashing was made using three planes and intersecting them with the stretchers offsetting the center one and then using loft by spline. I had originally used helix along curve but didn't like the look.
"It illustrates exactly the problem I was having. Running wiring around things, trying to have it hug the paths as closely as possible, and not through them."
That's the part that takes a lot of trial and error and time.
3SKeng looks interesting and would work for straight lines runs, don't know if it will work for complicated multi line wiring.
