Well duplication can and does happen. I'd be willing to create a part authoring intent page, but as I'm not allowed to run cgi-scripts on my website, all the entries would have to be compiled manually which, if I get behind, could lead to the same (...)

The update rotates much more predictably. Here are some movies of the 2 different version. In the old version, a slight mouse movement flips the model quite a bit. In the new version, the model doesn't move so much. Both of them show the pointer. I (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
