I know host (URL) OLC>, a neat program written by Richard Baxter which calculates conditional lines of a LDraw file. I have also made some minor improvements to my own (URL) Isecalc> and (URL) Linetrim>. Enjoy, Philo (17 years ago, 6-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) It's a great idea, but you may get more interest if it was open a bit longer. Much as I'd like to have a go at this, I'm sure I'm not the only one who's very busy this month. Jason R (17 years ago, 6-Jul-07, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) I've seen color variations in the same part. I ordered a batch of dark-red 1x10 bricks off Bricklink, and about 1/3 of them came in extra dark. Fortunately, only half of them were going to be built into front-facing surfaces, so all the (...) (17 years ago, 6-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)

(...) This reply may be useless for you since you got the weight brick, but it can be useful for those who don't have any: Brick 2x4 is not the ideal part for adding weight because it's hollow. Plates have definitely more ABS per volume unit. 24 (...) (17 years ago, 5-Jul-07, to lugnet.trains)
