Introduction

I going to create a workbench similar to flamingo. At least, until the point when I can collaborate with the author of the flamingo. The main difference between Flamingo and OSE-piping-workbench is that the OSEPW focuses in a little bit more realistic representation of pipe fittings. I will also do some experiments with mathematical description of the pipe fistings.

My main idea is to abstract all the piping forms (pipe and fitting) to a base + branches with normal vectors. This should make it easy to position and to rotate the piping objects. Everyone is welcome to discuss and criticize my approach.
