Yep! Absolutely ;) I'm very tempted to play with Eagle and Eagle3D now 
... maybe this weekend. But, there's a certain amount of enjoyment in 
doing all of the modeling on your own. I had actually created a texture 
macro that would generate the bands for a resistor, based on it's value, 
and a couple other parameters (tolerance, etc...)

Ah, Can't wait to see it :) As always, you produce some of the most 
stunning images!
