Re: Pyramid Dimension Contradiction
This also appears (I don't know yet to what extent) in the .STEP version of the pyramid provided by Autodesk. The top rung ends up short of 90" off the floor (bringing the whole top goal down with it), and the angles are off (exactly 60deg in the corner and almost 68deg on the side, as opposed to the other way around as advertised in the manual). The base also does not match the 94" spec in the manual. Somehow, however, the first two rungs are in the right positions. It would be nice to have some clarification on this, for sure.

I haven't yet been able to import the Pro/E files into Solidworks, so I don't know what issues that may or may not have.
