Technical Program Outline

viewtop - sets the workspace so that the user is viewing the object from the top.

zoom _win - zooms the workspace to a smaller focus area

zoom _win1 - zooms the workspace to a still smaller focus area

cylinder1 - creates a cylinder with length 'L' that comes out of the page.

cylinder2 - creates a cylinder with length 'L/2'.

union1 - unions the two cylinders.

cylinder3 - creates a cylinder with length 'L'.

cylinder4 - creates a cylinder with length 'L/2'.

subtract1 - subtracts the portion of cylinder2 and cylinder4 that are inside the cylinders creating a hollow pipe out of cylinder2 and cylinder4.

subtract2 - subtracts cylinder 3 from cylinder 1 creating a hollow pipe coming out of the page.

cylinder5 - creates a cylinder that will form the outer wall of pipe 3.

cylinder6 - creates a cylinder that will form the inner wall of pipe 3.

subtract3 - subtracts cylinder 6 from cylinder 5 creating a hollow pipe.

viewfront - sets the workspace so that the user is viewing the object from the front.

mirror1 - mirrors the bottom pipe 90 degrees clockwise.

mirror2 - mirrors the bottom pipe 180 degrees.

bigunion1 - joins the third, forth and fifth pipes.

mirror3 -
