   One question, I dind’t quite follow 17 though. Can you talk a bit more about that one? How’s it differ from the bell jar part? What’s it supposed to do? Can you “use it in a sentence?” ;-)

it’s the smaller version of the bell jar but it has no centre stud, therefore when used upside down, has a lovely hole that could be a sink, ... a toilet bowl ... the sky’s the limit!

Ah, OK. So is it only 1 stud around or is it a 2x2?

it’s a 2x2x2.

   The view you chose didn’t make that clear. For a couple of these parts showing them in use with another part, or showing several angles, might clarify the usages.

unfortunately, i’m flying by the seat of my pants here. while i figured out how to go from mlcad drawing to jpg to photo-paint, i haven’t figured out the reverse process. now that i’ve got a new piece, how do i get it back into mlcad to use it with other pieces? can it be done? otherwise, i’d make a sink or toilet to show you. i’m playing around with mlcad but haven’t found the magic key. think of what you could build then ... i feel like frankenstein!

   Most of them (the new and different kinds of tiles) are quite clear with just the view you chose, though

(...) I think you meant 2x2x1, since those are the dimensions of the R2-D2 head (the taller version is still only 2x2x1-2/3). (...) If you can get parts out to photo-paint to turn into new pieces, just build the rest of the stuff in mlcad, bring it (...) (20 years ago, 7-Jul-04, to lugnet.build, FTX)

(...) Deborah (and others) I made this offer awhile ago but had no takers - what the heck, I'll make it again here. If anyone has "wish list" parts they'd like to use in MLCAD but doesn't necessarily know how to author dat files, there's another way (...) (20 years ago, 7-Jul-04, to lugnet.build, FTX)
