OK, here's a the main part of the pattern (no quads between the pattern yet, and still the mouth, outer edges and eyes to do, plus the upper part of the pattern needs to be angled back instead of in a vertical plane!), any criticism you want to (...)

Has anyone tried to make the flexible electric wires that run between the electric elements? I have a bunch of these to do, and I'd like to find the best (easiest/fastest/nicest looking) way to do them. -John Van (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad)

ACK! That's gonna be a toughie! Good luck. One of my little "secrets" is that I often "draw" the face in a two-dimensional image (i.e., Z = -13 for all points on this preliminary image), and then check the "Front View" box in MLCAD to make sure the (...)

This is a proposal for a new meta-statement/header line for parts files. I'm hanging this off the pattern-id discussion, because it relates to patterned parts. The basic idea is this: right now, there are three ways to see if there is a relation (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
