Tony, FWIW, my vote is, anytime a partially spherical or parabolic shape is above a certain size, I *highly* recommend using the "high-res" (i.e., "48"-part) primitives. And don't worry about being "one of the few" who express interest in a subset (...) (23 years ago, 28-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Hi all, I am working on the combination of my DDK R2D2 with the RCX and some motors and sensors from the RIS 1.5. My first prototype has been finished and I am now drawing it with MLCAD.
