I've finished the development of this part. It was a bit difficult, especially to measure the curved surfaces and then the Excel acrobatics to generate their Ldraw counterpart. I think the result did worth the effort. I submit the part to part (...) (20 years ago, 29-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) You're welcome. :) Besides looking a little different, the page should also run a little bit faster. Especially if you follow any of the "Events" links from the ptdetails.cgi page. Steve (20 years ago, 29-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Shouldn't it be a forward slash (s/6898s01.dat)? Parts use forward slash in the actual part code (which is good, because it makes viewers in other operating systems slightly easier to make). --Travis (20 years ago, 29-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

(...) You can do it in LDAO as well, although there's no direct "round my decimals to 3 places" command. First, open your file in the editor. Second, go to Options | Decimals, and enter 3. Then put a line "0 SCALE 1" at the beginning of the block of (...) (20 years ago, 27-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Thanks everyone for the advice. After posting last night I went ahead and changed the hat puff to a 1/8 segment and called it s/6898s18.dat.
