German,Your drawings are very nice. I have been using AutoCAD for about 16 years, and I still cannot do the 3D drawings. I tried a few times, but it was beyond me for some reason. Keep up the good work. ------------------

Kodak has manufacturing facilities in Brazil and Mexico, and engineering/sales representatives throughout Latin America. There are also some very good film laboratories in countries like Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, and Mexico.Here is a link to Kodak's Latin American website for motion picture information:

German,
I do the same type of drawings everyday at the Engineering firm I work for here in Nashville. Although we don't draw projectors, platters, or splicers, our main focus is on Water and Sewer Treatment Plant design.Below is a rendered image of a "Raw Water Intake Structure" that I modeled using Microstation "J". Microstation is the PC spin-off of the huge Intergraph Machines and software I worked on in college. Microstation and Autocad are almost identical now.. though I prefer Microstation. This structure pictured below is a massive steel structure that pumps water out of a lake and sends it up to the treatment plant for purification. The things we all can do with computers nowdays is amazing.  ------------------

Barry;I worked on an interesting system about 6 years ago using Intergraph work stations. New York city had a goal of scanning in all the electrical, steam, sewage and water drawings (ie; drawings showing where all the pipes went under the street.) Some of these drawings were big; "J" roll size, and some dated back to the 1900's. Actually I just worked on the "proof-of-concept" using the water supply, and did some of the I/O design. After they were scanned, icons were associated to each valve or metered flow. The idea was you could call up the water drawing, say for example, for 5th Ave. Every valve or metering station would be shown, and by clicking on the icon, you could open or close the actual valve under the street, or get water flow data from the metering station. So if there was a water main break, you could find where excessive water was going and close off valves to prevent the water flow to the broken area. Eventually, the system would be programed to take care of such things itself. (In the lower part of Manhattan, crews looking for leaking water mains still find wooden tar coated "pipe" installed in the late 1890's - that's still being used.)
