Today's topic is Regular LEGO Sloped Bricks from 1958-1972. LEGO sloped bricks today are available in many different angled slopes. The earliest of these (and by far the most common today) are the regular 45 degree slopes. These came out in the late (...) (27 years ago, 10-Sep-99, to lugnet.general)

Ok. Never mind. I found the problem. I was missing the two original parts updates: lp97-13.exe and lp97-14.exe. The reason that I had a problem, I think, is that the LDraw.org site's getting started section does not mention these two updates. In (...) (27 years ago, 10-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad)
