  Re: Do these parts exist in LDRAW?
 
(...) What is the purpose of having two versions? I assume that the transparent version has all the internals accurately modeled so you can see them when light passes through, but why not just use this one even when it is opaque? I am obviously (...) (15 years ago, 19-Oct-09, to lugnet.cad)
