Can a moderator do > this more elegantly? I apologise in advance for the fact that the following will sound like nitpicking... LUGNET is not moderated. It however, does have admins. Admins can do a number of things. However, they cannot move posts. More however-ingly, an admin can force the followup on a post to be set to a particular group or groups. This is a relatively new feature and I (as an admin) am not yet quite sure of what the appropriate times to do that are. It sounds like this is one of those times, though so I've went ahead and forced the FUT to lugnet.parts.custom on the rest of the tree. Hope that helps (and if it doesn't, drop me a note ,I can undo it) ++Lar (LUGNET Transition Team member) PS I saw some of these printed parts at BrickFest. WAY cool. I would also like to talk to you at some point about how to motivate your students to want to do modeling (that topic came up at BrickFest too)

		Motivating CAD students to model LEGO (was prototyping)
(...) Well, my Semester starts in two weeks, so if you have any tips I'm all for hearing them! My biggest problem is motivating the Architecture students in my group. The Engineers don't really care what they draw (a widget is a widget is a widget). (...)

		OK, I'm torn
Today I had a first - -Student brings in a set of BI to show what he wants to make for his first project in my 3D AutoCAD class. -It's a Megabloks kit. :( Cool model, though. :) Darrell (20 years ago, 14-Sep-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.edu, FTX)

		question about people who are doing rapid prototyping of parts...
A while back someone posted a sort of "wishlist" of parts they would like to see lego make. Has anyone (with access to a RP machine) considered making some/all of these parts? Even if just to see how they would work in the real world... (20 years ago, 14-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad)
