Hi, I'm building a lot of stuff with MLCAD. But now I came across a problem I can't solve; I need the parts with bricklink.com codes 60800, 3068bpb62 and x93. Has anyone got these parts by any chance? (I've looked on the parts tracker on (...) (14 years ago, 10-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  How to fix a failing touch sensor on Spybotics
 
Hi all, I recently got hold of a - previously ignored - Spybotics model (I never really considered them to be of interest until I got one cheap and found the kids like it).
