Do any of you do controls assemblies in Solidworks? Like wires, hoses and that kind of thing. I'm trying to figure the best way to make wires in a solid, with all the bending and flexing involved getting them where they are going. Any ideas?

Create a new part in the assy, use 3D Sketch to create the wires. If you do a lot of models like this, I suggest purchasing Router.

Thanks CBL.
"Routing" not "Router".
