  Re: Duplo parts?
 
In lugnet.cad.dat.parts Steve Bliss wrote... (...) Yup... :) (...) There is: Primitive substitution! I found out that we (mis)use stud4.dat by scaling its height by 5 in bricks! (and other factors in other parts) If I add a rounded edge to (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Updated Part: 3001_d.dat - Duplo Brick 2 x 4  [DAT]
 
2nd reply to my own post... After realizing that the inner bits aren't really all that hard (time-consuming, perhaps, but not too hard), I added the interior ribs and associated lines. I hadn't planned on doing this today, but it's been quiet around (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: January LDraw MOTM Competition
 
Here is a copy of the tutorial I'm going to submit on camera angles: Free-Form Camera Positioning with MLCAD, L3P, and POV-RAY One of the hardest issues to grasp when starting out with MLCAD, L3P, and POV-RAY is figuring out how to position the (...)

  Re: Free-Form Camera Positioning with MLCAD, L3P, and POV-RAY
 
Yes - you are right. I was confused by some of the scaling and rotation primatives at the end of the .pov ray file. I'll change this. thanks Lars C.

  Re: January LDraw MOTM Competition
 
Yeah - I wasn't sure what to submit either. The long shot shows the overall construction the best (when you bring up the enlarged picture), but its certainly not very impressive for the thumbnail. Any suggestions? By the way, if you have ideas on (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: 8880 Steering
 
(...) Well, I did, but the suspension has no droop in it to cut down on hard angles, and the shocks aren't in yet. Probably some errors. I only got to step 24. Email me if you want it. Rob (24 years ago, 5-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: New Part: 3001_d.dat - Duplo Brick 2 x 4
 
Whoops- I forgot to add something... this is a working copy only. It certainly needs work. Mainly, it has none of the interior ribs. I'm just posting it because I am already using it as a standin piece right now. If someone else wants to do it (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Paul (et al), Sorry I haven't replied to this message, I've been meaning to, but I didn't want to rush out a quick reply without thinking things through. I'm not sure I've thought things through thoroughly, but I thought I'd at least throw this out. (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  New Part: 3001_d.dat - Duplo Brick 2 x 4  [DAT]
 
Again, I'm not an expert on naming conventions. But it makes sense to me to name a Duplo piece after the corresponding System piece and append it with "_d". But if someone more up on this sort of thing has a better idea, by all means correct me (not (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  New Primitive: Stud4du.dat Duplo bottom tube  [DAT]
 
I'm not terribly familiar with the naming conventions for parts, so I expect this will need a different name and/or filename... This is the bottom tube for Duplo parts. Note that it is not just a doubled System tube. The inner diameter is (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Lions face cornice/facade piece ?

  Re: New Primitive: Studdu2.dat Duplo Stud
 
This part looks good to me, although the geometry is clearly a combination between older Duplo parts and newer Duplo parts. The OD is clearly correct because it exactly doubles a System stud. You can demonstrate with a pair of plates that the space (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  MLCad Question: Snapshots.
 
Is there a way, that you can change the angle you take the snapshot at? So that you can take pictures from diffrent angles on the model? -Help would be appreciated. (24 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
