  Minimalist LDraw on floppy?
 
...With 13 Mb of parts files, yeah right. Bummer. :-( However, it would be really really really cool if LDLite, MLCad, etc. would load parts from a URL as needed. In my view, agreeing upon a transmission protocol for this is probably the highest (...) (25 years ago, 6-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Another question on part 30397
 
(...) I just checked, and the length is 10 between the centre of the peg holes, i.e. a total length of 11 for the whole beam. The part number is 6247. This is from the set 8462 Tow Truck. Sorry about presenting wrong information initially! Fredrik (25 years ago, 6-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: New minifig-scale anthromorphic lifter/loader
 
Very, very nice, Jeremy. Now all you need is to make company that sells your line of loader/lifter. Call "Sproat Loaders Inc." or something like that. Keep up the good work! (...) (25 years ago, 6-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: New minifig-scale anthromorphic lifter/loader
 
(...) Definitely will. But I'm trying to decide if I want to add it to Her Majesty's Secret Death Squad (yawn) or if I want to start a new series, or if it's a stand-alone model. That, and I need to throw together a few props to go with it... (...) (...) (25 years ago, 6-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

  Re: Another question on part 30397
 
(...) Cool. We should probably have the length and part number confirmed by someone else, though, as I may very well remember incorrectly. LDS looks interesting. Should check it out some day, but I can't see that I'll find any time soon... Fredrik (25 years ago, 6-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Thank you, Fredrik, Here's the LDS source.

  Re: Datsville contribution

  Re: Another question on part 30397
 
(...) Yep! There's one in blue in 8462, e.g. I don't remember the length offhand, but I think it was 11 (between the centre of the holes). Perhaps someone else remembers the length and part number for this one? Fredrik (25 years ago, 6-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
