I have to model some large wire and was wondering how to do this in ProE without the cabling package.

One way you could do it is to sweep a section (your wire diameter) along a curve or section. This is typically avoided as it makes the model large and harder to work with (hence, Pro/Cabling). It helps to make it less painful if you sweep it as a surface, instead of the solid.

Good luck.
