I have been looking at modelling the Container grap peice which is on peeron as
26482 (http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/26482).
On closer inspection of my peices, one is labelled 26482-01, the other is
26481-01.
Should this piece be called 2648 instead? (Also exists on peeron but isn't in
any sets).

Conventional wisdom is that imprints of the form N-NN are present to identify
the indidual "well" in moulds that produce multiple copies of a part.

Considering that the matching grip is 2649, I think it is highly likely that the
part number for the grab is 2648, and you are seeing a combination of the part
number and the mould well number. Is there any spacing between the 2648 and the
1-01? Other supporting evidence is the proximity of this number to other 264x
parts that also first appeared in the 1991 Nautica sets.

The 1-01 is raised very slightly from the 2648 so it makes sense.

If this theory is true we should probably see "2648 3-01" or "2648 1-02" or
situations where due to random assortment an individual set has two parts
numbered like "2648 1-01".

I'd go ahead and model as 2648.dat.

Ok, wish me luck :)
