 | | Darth Maul minifig head - hints and tips?
|
|
Just to let everyone know I'm tentatively starting the Darth Maul head, but as it's my first attempt at a part I'm going to wait until I've finished before sorting out the pattern number as I may not get chance to complete it. I've already done 1/4 (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Forward: I'd rather stick with using P as the patterned-element designator. Add letters to the suffix, to allow up to 1296 patterns per part. If this is not enough, then define another letter-designator in addition to the P. If we get 1500 patterns (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I've thought about doing something like this. How would you want to see LDS linked to LDAO? (...) Highlight, push to subfile, Undo (ctrl-Z), add new line to ref. subfile, invert appropriate components, Inline. I think it takes longer to write (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad)

Here, as promised, is the "naked" UCS X-wing canopy. Again, this time no subparts. This is a regular old .dat file fit to stuff in your parts directory. Again, as always, LMKWYT. "Parts are never finished... just abandoned" - some guy Tim Romine (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

OK, folks. I've learned a lot since I first made this part, and now I have "fixed" everything (I think...). Now no subparts are required, and I removed the "no-no's" (type 2 lines outlining the patterns). This part is just an ordinary .dat file now, (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Rather than the suggestion of using alpha characters, in the "pattern number", have we considered allowing other characters in the sixth position - so we allow nnnnnp00-nnnnnp99 nnnnnq00-nnnnnq99, nnnnnr00-nnnnnr99, etc as valid patterned part (...)
