I do this sometimes with my models also - I need to reinstall that Pipe modification and make sure I keep it installed!
It would be nice if there were 2 additional parameters in Pipe that would let you specify an X,Y offset from the curve.
So if I wanted to say have the pipe's center line a bit higher I could put in 0,.5 if I want the pipe to be raised a bit.
The X parameter would be similar to Offsetting the curve where I could pull the pipe inside the rail (.5,.5) or pull the pipe on the outside of the rail (-.5,.5).
Of course I could run the Offset command on the rail first to get the X offset that I need and then click and drag the rail up or down for the Y value but again, it'd be nice if there were X,Y offset fields to allow this to be done in one shot...
