Hey ken thanks for the reply, I will try it but to be honest I dont think I will be able to do what you mentioned as its too much for a newby to understand, but I will give it a go.

LOL yes it is the size of earth and Im wanting to put this argument to bed finally with mechanical test.

After 2 years of laser and camera tests I cannot find any curvature that exists on this spinning space marble, so Im on my way to do a mechanical test where i will span a top quality fishing line across a 2 mile dam with approx 200 lbs tension just 1in above the waters surface at both ends, and if the earth is a globe it will drop into the water by some distance (reason for autocad). The normal curvature at 2 miles is 32in, but I want to know what Autocad will show through the middle when I have the fishing line 1in above the surface, as it will be less than 32in.

Its been done just recently, but I want to do it here in Australia also to prove as Fact.

If you can help me draw it that would be great, as it would be good to know what the drop would be at what distance and where its the greatest drop.

Email me if its easier

Thanks heaps
