Don't know if rip tool is quite the right name, but say you have a really long object, and you need to shorten it, so that it will display close up in Model to Sheet, it would be handy to have a random draw line/rip tool to draw between two points rather than having to do it manually with the multi-line tool.

Yes a good request, with maybe with a few variations of randomness and make it so it works with shafts too.

Martin.

Yup, like the loop-back squiggle thing?

It's a pig to draw manually. Good stuff Martin. :)

Yes thank you! I've resorted to using the line tool to draw "breaks". This is a must have tool.
