I just threw vector in there because the Macromedia suite can convert to vectors; regular bitmaps are better by far. I heard that several of the CAD programs can sketch a line image from a bitmap ala importing blueprints, so I'm hoping to use that to do it.

I know it's not a huge deal, but it IS boring work that takes a lot of time to do, especially when you're trying to match the curves as closely as possible. And I hadn't thought about using NURBS curves, I usually stay away from those evil tools and objects, but it bears consideration. Danke.
