Alan, we have recently had an on-going discussion with a new user about how to do some 3D things in Vector. You may want to study the thread and the associated files. Here is a link to that discussion:

Please feel free to start your own discussion thread if you have some specific parts that you want to make, or to ask about any of the functions that you would like to have a more in-depth discussion.
