Great work! I'd say the part should be oriented differently, though. There is a long tradition of having round, wheel-like things oriented with the axle hole (or whatever) in the z-direction. I'd also say that the centre of the part should be in the (...) (24 years ago, 13-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
