  stl2dat converter now read binary stl
 
Good news for Autocad part developers ! My stl2dat converter now reads binary stl files. It recognises binary files automatically. I also introduced a new option to set the origin, because some cad-cam programs can only produce stl files where all (...) (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: The geometry of minifigs
 
(...) No, the part is authored with an angle of 9.782. The (x,y) values of the lower facet of the shoulder is (14.345,2) and that at the waist is (19,29) - hence 4.655/27. Or alternatively the top of the torso is (14,0), giving 5/29 - the same (...) (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Are anybody working on the Star Wars Battle Droid arms?
 
Are anybody currently working on the Star Wars Battle Droid arms? I would like to use these in a model, and would be quite happy with some simple mock ups. Thanks! Fredrik (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: The geometry of minifigs
 
(...) Thanks. Can I safely assume that the author used 10 degrees when modeling the part? BTW: This is just what I find unuserfriendly about the parts library: You had to reverse engineer the part to find the angle. I'm sure the information I asked (...)

  Re: New Part: Castle Shield with Wolfpack Pattern
 
(...) So it's obvious what I copied from one part to the other, huh! Thanks for making the fixes - I'll make sure the revised versions go in for the voting. Chris (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: New Part: Castle Shield with Black Falcon Pattern
 
(...) I'll check all of these out - guess I skimped on the QA with "L3P -check". Apologies, Chris (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

You little beauty, chris. Now if we can only get the torso (the scan in the torsos plan fell through because the guy never got back to me). Could the torso be done by taking the pattern from this piece & shrinking it down a bit, then adding the edge (...) (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
