Good work - cheers!

Will have a further play with inkscape and work through some tutorials, determined to figure out how to make decent vector graphics!

Now, if you were on Skype, you could view my desk top as I explained CD, it's a great way of demonstrating things.

The way CD operates is very similar to Illustrator, so it's likely Inkscape commands are the same.  If you get stuck, give me a shout.

Thanks Tony.

Not happy with it though. I resized it after drawing and the pipe widths look awful, so I'll probably rework it.  Mean time I'll crack on with the table and operating steps.

I've barley used MS paint, but I've just had a brief play and it seems possible to lift bits from existing bitmaps.

Try saving http://www.biopowered.co.uk/wiki/File:Wiki_graphics_master.png to your computer.  Open it in paint, then open another paint window.  You can select and copy items from one then paste into the other and move them around as separate objects.

I'm happy to add pipes, bends and other objects, in various orientations as required if it will help.  Let me know.

Also posted this to the graphics master page.

Just had a longer play in paint and it seems possible to replicate the style quite well using copy and paste plus a bit of Paint ... http://www.biopowered.co.uk/wiki/File:Paint_test.PNG

 EDIT ... Oh, sorry, should have said, text was copy and pasted out of Word, 10 point Arial
