Part Reviewers: There are 12 new DUPLO part files on the PT, ready for release. However, all of these files depend on the new primitives stud7 and stud8. In order for the stud files to be released, their fast-draw companion files, stu27.dat and (...) (23 years ago, 28-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) There's no 1-16cyli.dat primitive because it hasn't been needed/asked for. The general approach is to not introduce primitives until they're needed. Steve (23 years ago, 28-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

|

I was thinking that the teeth for the old technic gears (3647-1649) and the beveled ones (32270 and 32296) should be made into primitives. I tried editing the 3648 part in ldraw, but the file was too big to even load! (23 years ago, 28-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
