Okay, I'm probably the only one here who really cares about Duplo parts (with the possible exception of Paul Easter). But I figure that some folks at least will appreciate having these added to the parts library. As part of modeling Duplo, I'm also (...) (23 years ago, 27-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
