Hi Felix, so notice in Burr's video above how he just uses the line drawing tool and that's all that is needed for putting in tan/tan lines - he just places the line in nearby where the tan/tan line is, then there will be a snap point created on the second circle (or curve, it works on any bendy curve as well) right at the tan/tan location and if you put your mouse on it the tan/tan snap will engage which will also move the base point of the line. You can tell when that special tan/tan snap engages because a "Tan/Tan" tag will appear on not only the end point of the line but also the start point of the line as well - with that snap the start point of the line is also adjusted. Here's a previous video of this in action:



Move your mouse a little ways along the second curve until you find the tan/tan point and then you'll have these lines you need without doing any special extra construction work.

BurrMan,

that's exactly it. No need to construct any thing extra.

Thanks to all as well,
Felix
