hiya

i guess i'm not the best person to give advice since i'm on here as a beginner for advice myself... but its late on a saturday night and if you are like me then anything is worth a shot!

i use the 'offset' command. if you select the first line and then click on the offset button, you can then specify a distance to offset a second line. you'll end up with two parallel lines a specified distance apart.

good luck!
