I am making a flat top pyramid, 4 sided.

What I need to know -

1. How can I precisely position the thing?

2. How can I precisely define the height - or, how does the starting
point number work?

#declare Base6 = prism
{
    linear_spline
    conic_sweep
    0.83, // What's the precise height? Where is this surface located?
Should be 38 units high.
    1,
    5,
    <32, 32 >,
    <-32, 32 >,
    <-32, -32 >,
    <32, -32 >,
    <32, 32 >
    sturm
    rotate <180, 0, 0>
    translate <0, 0.119, 0>// it's actually located at -142y. How'd it
get there with a +0.119 tanslation?
    scale <1, 204, 1>// starting pyramid is 204 units high by 32 units
square base.
}

THANKS for any help ya'll can offer!
