Ooo, cool. That means each of the colored faces in your image is a 1-4disc.dat, right? That'll work very nicely. I'll forward this to the primitives committee. Do you mind if I use it in the skeleton leg file? Steve (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

It is not part of a sphere. It can be thought of as a virtual cube which has had one corner sliced away in a curved fashion. Or to put it another way, it is the grey area in this image: "(URL) radii are "1", and its angles are 90 degrees (i.e., 1/4 (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

all of the parts are available for the 8448 except for the wheels, I dont know about the other 2 sets, I think that all of the parts for the 8445 are available but I think there are some missing for the 8444.
