  Re: Stretching cylinders  [DAT]
 
(...) There is no way to get your shape using primitives, it would require non-linear transformations. So, as mentionned by Michael, the best way is to use Coverer. You can nonetheless get a similar (but quite different) shape using shearing as (...) (16 years ago, 15-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

  NEW LEGO Train Set for 2009?
 
Anyone know about this new train? I think I saw a constructed model recently on-line, but I was under the impression this was a MOC and not a new LEGO issued train set. It looks like the set is R/C and not a 9V. Is this the new and improved hybrid (...) (16 years ago, 15-Feb-09, to lugnet.trains)  
 
  Re: Stretching cylinders
 
Is this what you had in mind? (...) Basicly changing any of the non zero coordinates will scale along the coresponding axis. You can also accomplish shearing by replacing any of the zero's with a different number. (16 years ago, 14-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  BrickOS Patches and Development
 
Greetings, This is a follow up to earlier postings discussing the development status of BrickOS.

(...) AFAIK there is no solution with primitives in this case. I would suggest use one of the tools from Philo ((URL) to fill the space between those 4-4edge.dat cu mikeheide (16 years ago, 15-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

  Stretching cylinders  [DAT]
 
Well, it's my second thread today, but how would you go to "stretch" a cylinder, like a cone, but only in Y-axis, not X-axis? I've again attached a dat file to show what I mean. Basically I'd need a cylinder that'd fit those two 4-4edge.dat:s, any (...) (16 years ago, 14-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

  cylt.dat  [DAT]
 
Hello, I've been in need of a primitive something similar to a sloped cylinder, but something little different, so I made such primitive. I can't describe the primitive, though.
