OK, I was just studying the differences between the solid stud classic
windows/doors, and the hollow stud variety. And I found another difference....
If you take hollow stud classic windows/doors, and lay them face down, you will
see that the "side walls" of the 1x3x2 and larger windows have thicker sidewalls
than the 1x1x1, 1x2x1, 1x1x2, 1x2x2 windows and the 1x2x3 doors. The smaller
windows and the doors have thinner sidewalls, except at the base where they get
thicker (so as to attach properly to baseplates/bricks). With the full stud
windows/doors, ALL sizes of windows (and the doors) have the thick sidewalls.

| (...) Thanks, Gary, That has also been pointed out earlier, but since it doesn't affect the function or "behaviour" af the parts, those differences will be neglected in LDraw. /Tore (18 years ago, 20-Apr-06, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.general)
