  Significance of stud orientation
 
Hey, I have a question about the significance of stud orientation. Many parts created before stud logos were introduced (and some parts even created afterwards) have different orientation compared to the real part. (I know back then the orientation (...) (21 years ago, 28-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: New parts and question about metal parts

  Re: LPub install trouble
 
(...) I'm just guessing here but didn't MegaPOV previously have a dependency on POV 3.1 and didn't work right with 3.5? I dunno because I don't use it. (21 years ago, 28-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: MLCAD for Linux :D
 
(...) I didn't really like the LEOCAD interface much. Also MLCAD seems much more advanced, with stuff such as hose and minifig generator.
