creating pipes and wires in multiple planes

how should i create pipe and wires that are necessarily not in the same plane, using 3D sketching is quite a cumbersome and hard process, is there any other way?

i cannot share my working file as it is a project which i cannot disclose,  my question is how to create pipe which connect to fixtures not in same plane while avoiding other bodies in the design.

Make up a dummy file that exhibits the same behavior.

I use Intersection of 2D to get 3D path.

Hi @Anonymous ,
So my opinion is to make a general model and then copy it several time and place theme one by one. At last combine them as a single body.
If you have any query feel free to ask.
Thank you.

Yes that´s possible!

If you show some basics of the construction e.g. as a hand sketch, one could give hints.

I have a query, "Can you post a Screencast recording of your suggested technique?"

Planes that are not parallel do cross each other somewhere you know.

 

If you're not happy with a single 3D sketch... Create multiple planes where you want the runs to go, and connect the endpoints of lines on one plane with the endpoints of lines on another plane.
