  Re: Minifig Head with Messy Ice Planet Hair Pattern
 
(...) liked to call him "The Ice Planet Kid". (...) I seem to remember that some early Divers sets had the Ice Planet head. 'Early' as in a few heads accidently got mixed in, or they were using up left-over supplies. I've never been able to (...) (22 years ago, 25-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Converting AutoCAD/3D Studio/etc. to .dat with 3DWin
 
(...) Have you tried MAX2DAT at all? (...) Have you tried DAT2DXF for this? (...) I too would like a 2 way program as using 2 different progs is time consuming and inaccurate. (Hmm... sounds like a project I could work on) -Orion (22 years ago, 25-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Converting AutoCAD/3D Studio/etc. to .dat with 3DWin
 
(...) Let me clarify this statement - When I was originally looking at file converters, I was specifically looking for .dat to .dxf converters so I could use LDraw parts for reference in AutoCAD. There are a couple of these linked through LDraw.org. (...) (22 years ago, 24-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Converting AutoCAD/3D Studio/etc. to .dat with 3DWin
 
(...) Hi Tim, First of all, the demo version is free. With it, you can convert as many files as you want (you just have to do them one at a time, and you don't get the pretty preview images). It's up to your conscience whether you decide to upgrade (...) (22 years ago, 24-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: New MAC Modeller for LDRAW FILES
 
(...) Sure...not a problem. I don't get a chance to do much here anymore, but after BricksWest, and some good LDraw convos, I'm more pumped than ever to get a Mac LDraw utility completed. (...)

  Re: New MAC Modeller for LDRAW FILES
 
Thanks for the feedback guys, It’s good to see that the program does run – and no reported crashes? I will answer some of the comments first, Matt – not all parts are drawing; have you set the Ldraw folder location in “Preferences” yet? Matt – part (...)

  Lightbricks and lightbulbs
 
A while ago I started creating the 2x2 lightbricks Type I (both 4.5 and 12 Volt versions). I have only created the body, the glass part and the metal sockets of these bricks. Since I have my worn out TLC lightbulbs replaced by working lightbubs from (...) (22 years ago, 24-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Download parts automatically with your preferred modeller?
 
More commonly, "Hear, hear." In this media, maybe it should be, "Read, read." To more closely match the olde English, maybe, "Lo, lo," which means "Look, look." In whichever form it is stated, however, I must admit to strong agreement with the (...)
