  Re: Classic Windows: Variants of 646*.dat
 
(...) Thanks - I had forgotten about Gary Istok's dissertations on the subject of Classic Windows. Regarding 646 (1x6x2 with Shutters)<QUOTE> Here is what I have (with counts in parethesis): Full Stud windows with sills (and 2 small holes on top): (...) (21 years ago, 1-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Classic Windows: Variants of 646*.dat
 
(...) Oh dear, oh dear! Just as I thought I was getting to understand something, everything turns out to be much more complicated. It really saddens me to see that appearantly it wasn't just Samsonite that sold windows without glasses. Pop went my (...) (21 years ago, 1-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New Part: 3035p01.dat - confirmation, it exists!
 
(...) Thanks Clark! Too bad that geocities.jp link is dead. That would have been so much easier to tell if the part had been red... Well, I think it is ABS. No sign of misforming, I'd say the stud logo is late 60's, higher and more modern than the (...) (21 years ago, 1-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: File Size Concerns ( Was Re: Animal Tail Section end (NEW))
 
(...) I agree. If I would reduce the decimal points the size would be reduced by 20k but then I get a lot of not coplanar vertices so that these needs to be split (increeses size) or have to store with the numbers. But the neighbour vertices needed (...) (21 years ago, 1-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Yes, that's right, there is a tie for January Model of the Month. The competition was fierce and we came within 1 vote of a tie in the SOTM and missed a 3 way win in the MOTM by 1 vote as well.

(...) Tore, The variants of the shutter window you describe have been discussed before: (URL) rest of that thread is also interesting in regards to classic windows. Hope that helps, Clark (21 years ago, 1-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New Part: 3035p01.dat - confirmation, it exists!

  Re: File Size Concerns ( Was Re: Animal Tail Section end (NEW))
 
(snip) I think you're both right. I am reminded of a quote: "Make things as simple as possible, but not simpler." -Albert Einstein You're both geniuses too, you know. :-) (21 years ago, 1-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: No more parts updates?
 
Ahhhh, Leonardo good to hear from you ! Bad to hear that you lost your program tools, That kind of thing happens at least once to all of us I guess ;-). Well, I do have problems with the piece library manager. Sometimes the program simple freezes up (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.leocad)
 
  File Size Concerns ( Was Re: Animal Tail Section end (NEW))
 
(...) I agree with the elimination of excess but I disagree with a reduction in part quality simply because it is "too large" (...) I agree again. The point I was trying to make is size concerns should not be the only reason to redo a quality[1] (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Animal Tail Section end (NEW)
 
(...) I agree with Thomas (and Orion, I think - although from his post, I'm not sure he looked at your reduced-size file) -- keep the original. If you are concerned about file size, you could try reducing the number of decimal places on your (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Animal Tail Section end (NEW)
 
(...) I have to strongly disagree with this. If a file can be done just as well with fewer bytes, that's a good thing. Good for downloading, good for maintaining the part, good for storing the parts library. (...) I won't argue with your figures, I (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Multicolor identical lines in a datfile?

  Classic Windows Type c: Short Ledge
 
My theory is that Samsonite (and maybe some more non-Danish plants?) made the without holes version of the classic windows. Also, Samsonite launced their version of 29c, 29c, and 27c without glass. Plesae correct me if O'm mistaken. I have a bunch (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad)
