Hello.  I'm trying to design some new tube routing and reuse some old data from previous installations.  Is there a relatively simple way to do it in SW? I tried some of the routing features, but I don't think they're what I need.  My main focus is to reuse the previous geometries; if I can reproduce those, most of my problem will be solved.

I'm having a hard time reading and understanding the old bend data tables I have as well as translating them into a solid model.  Can anyone help me with any of this?  I'm not an expert with SW, but I would consider myself a competent user.

Here is an example of the data I'm talking about:

Thanks for any help you can provide.
