  Help with Ledit Please!
 
Hi everybody, I've tried to download Ldraw and Ledit a few times long ago, they never worked. I decided to try again now, and I saw the LDraw page was updated with a user-friendly concept (that was really nice, btw). I downloaded the ldraw.exe and (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad)

  Dave Eaton's Grand Piano  [DAT]
 
Well, Dave sent me some pictures of the grand piano he made so I could use it in an upcoming project. I decided, with his permision, to model it in LDraw so other people could benefit from its grandness. :) Anyway, here it is! Jeff 0 Dave Eaton's (...)

  Re: OMR Filenaming Standard Change?
 
(...) Exactly my point. 'Official' "alternate" models are the models that can be made using the pieces supplied in the set, and instructions are given in the instruction manual that comes with the set. this would include Technic sets and Technic (...)

  Re: Part number for crystal in Rock Raider sets?
 
(...) You should ask that to Lego. ;) We try to follow the Lego numbering scheme as far as known. As far as CAD is concerned there is no need for a different part, it's just a matter of changing the colour properties. Rui Martins (25 years ago, 19-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Filenames were not changed to take advantage of the "force stud-drawing" "feature" of LEdit. The code inside of several files was changed to reference stud.dat or STUD.DAT.
