intersection curve-curve/CCX problem

Hi all,
 i'm trying to find the intersection points in the net of wires inside the shell of cooling tower. It's not the first time i find the CCX tool working against my assumptions. Maybe it is the bug or a matter of scale of precision. Does anyone know why CCX tool doesn't show all points of intersections on this model ? Thank You for any ideas on this topic.

    Hi Adam,

    I don't know the precise workings of CCX, but it probably uses a tolerance to decide if the lines intersect, in this case the lines might not be quite intersecting. You might like to try this curve shatter-er: http://parametricmodel.com/Shatter2dpattern/9.html if you double click the C# script you can see the tolerance variable inside.
