  I need Windscreen 4 x 4 x 1
 
Somehow I lost the .dat file for the Windscreen 4 x 4 x 1. Could someone please just copy the text of the .dat file into a message so I can have it? Thanks, --Ryan E-mail: ryanjf@ifriendly.com Website: (URL) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dat.models)

Hi Tim, Thanks for posting this. I found a minor error. The first word under the 2nd heading "Background" should be "MLCAD," not "LCAD."

  Re: Question about generating curves
 
I could make a tool to display a part (wireframe view) from any angle.

  Re: Question about generating curves
 
Thanks everyone for your helpful information. I believe that I can now properly model curves manually (as opposed to just using cylinder primitives). I'll be trying it out on the "coarse" version of the Duplo bottom stud. As for BFC statements, I (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Question about generating curves
 
What is an optional line? These seem to be used for modeling curves, but I don't have a clue how to use them. While I'm asking, what is a BFC statement?
