Cudos to all Shapr3d gurus here. And here’s 3 troubles I’ve been dealing with

1. I’ve made a part and for better presentation I need to show how the part works. I need to bend a the “tail’’ of it around the part as a clamp. How can I bend/align the “tail” to a projected curve I’ve created? From A object to B curve  

2. Part has an array-“Pattern” (as elastic zig-zag cushion) and has 5 copies (of zig-zag), one after another and then “tail” part is continues. When I add more parts to pattern array is there a way to keep tail attached to the last added pattern item. So “tail” part started exactly at last pattern item? Part C keeps on plane of the last pattern object E! Not D  

3. Cushioning zig-zag pattern Z starting from base going upward then down so its offsets centeline (imaginary) upwards. I’ve realized it after the whole part is build… so is there a way how to rotate R zig-zag pattern downwards (offsetting center line downwards)……… without loosing constrains of strting plane P and cleaning up the whole bunch of random errors from changing beforemath happened at F point of build?  

I’m sure the answer is somewhere nearby or theres a work anrond and to be honest I’m still new here to see a better way. Have a lot of ambitions but only sticks in hands… JK! Love the app, love constant support and upgrade list. Already subscribed for pro version. Please help
