(...) So, tried to do a fresh install of more than just LSynth, and it now works like a charm! It helped to have the newest MLCAD *blush*. No idea on how I managed to still have 3.11 installed. Sorry guys! Cheers, Matija (16 years ago, 26-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad)

It's very impressive that you pulled off a reasonably-precise 3D scanner using LEGO. Don't worry about its speed: all touch/contact scanners are slow. :) (16 years ago, 16-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.robotics)
