I am using a concoction of my own writing. I suppose it could be classified as a finite-element analysis tool, but it's horribly primitive by modern day professional standards and has no fancy visualisation tools. Best bit though is that it is free, apart from me spending some time to code it up.

Self-assembled?

Have discussed lithographically etched tubes with someone. Biggest issue appears to be that everything needs to be squarish.
