If someone knows what i mean then please tell me how they most be built.

Another thing with don't we make an icq group or msn group so we can send quick
answers or suggestion, comments or ideas ?

I've found the easiest way to do this is to build the entire model along the x,y
and z axis at 0 and 90 degree angles, as seen in the link:

(Baseplate included for clarity)
I then select all the pieces in the model and rotate the entire model along the
z-axis, -4 degrees in this example.  This should work for 1496 just fine, not
sure about 6851.  The result is this:

(...) I use Mlcad I made the 1496 model like u said then i made a new file and added the model and a baseplate but when it comes to rotating it doesn't rotate as u say. (21 years ago, 1-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad)
