Rotate pipe in part builder?

[asloat]

Maybe this is simple, maybe not;

I want to create a version of an egg shaped pipe that is like the one provided by default, but upside down. Is there an easy way to copy the existing pipe family and rotate it 180 degrees?

It should be very easy to make a copy of that existing pipe.  The difficult part will be adjusting the geometry once inside the Part Builder interface.  It can be done, but it may take some experimenting.

To copy the part, use the 'Modify Part Sizes' option when starting up Part Builder, then use the 'Save Part Family As' option to make a copy of the Egg Shape Pipe.  Once you know you have a copy, you can start playing with the geometry and constraints.  Part Builder can be difficult though, it won't just let you move or rotate the objects.

I was able to get it pretty close by changing some of the Model parameters.  If you can adjust BdyD1 from PIW to PIW * 0.5 and Bdy2 from PIW *0.5 to PIW, I think it might be what you're looking for.  It just looks like it might not be centered, but that should be adjustable with the other Model Parameters.  Good Luck.
