Hi Kevjon,
You can also create a "GRID" of lines in both directions, a hatch", then run "network" to create a surface. The surface will have points at the grid intersections. So with Array you can create various shapes with exact pointing very fast. If need a picture I'll post it in a bit.

You can then trim that surface with another shape curve to get more exacting shapes of surfaces with the point structure desired.

You may want tot get the "ShrinkTrimmedSrf" command from the Petr's MoI page on the resources tab to shrink away the points left from a surface trim. Although the point structure remaines "Primitive", the surface will be a shape you wanted originally.

Mucho Controlo!
