actually, I think that is what I saw that guy in that video I posted
doing. In freecad, he took a plane and intersected it with his work
piece, and then created a path (he called it a wire.). I posted that
video here a few iterations back in this thread.
That seemed kind of neat, how he did that, but I was not able to
reproduce that.

Not really, you just need to draw the outline. For most lathe-turned
parts that is just a set of diameters and shoulders.
