Hi Chris, Hi Orion, When reviewing the PT Minifig Hand I have assembled your two parts. My opinion is that the Hand holder is too thin for the Minifig Arm. Even if Minifig Arm is not in the PT you should contact to agree on the measurements so that (...) (22 years ago, 22-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Hi Orion, Your LDDesignPad plugin for flexible parts is absolutely great! Can precision be limited to 2 digits? Two digits would be more than enough for me. Thanks Orion and Carsten Schmitz, Damien (22 years ago, 22-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)
