Hey all, I've done a (not so extensive) search of the .cad groups and related web sites, and haven't seen this mentioned (though it may have been-sorry if that is so). Have the .dat parts from LDraw ever been collected into an archive of 3D objects? (...) (24 years ago, 2-May-01, to lugnet.cad)

HeeHeee!

Well, sort of. Here's more of the story: I asked Dan Boger if he could help with developing the new automated Parts Tracker. He's been working on it, as he's had time, for awhile now. Unfortunately, he doesn't really have any time to put into it, (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
