Neat package! I knew there were lots of informal SW/LEGO fans out there (SW meaning SolidWorks!). Can I ask a couple of questions?

1. Is there an official English page? Trying to read using an online translator is very frustrating. I really want to see an English translation of the PDF doc with all the specifications of the package.

2. What parts are included in the library? I’ve already modeled quite a few in SolidWorks, so I need to know if it’s worth purchasing.

3. Your translator imports DAT/LDR files and imports them into SW as surface models, right? Does it translate the “LDRAW Unit” to metric sizes automatically? I think I understood that correctly from some of the charts. Does your translator go the other way (SolidWorks back to DAT)?

I teach a class that models LEGO parts in various software, and I’ve had to change it as more and more parts become available on the net. Now I’m really going to have to be careful that these parts don’t show up in my class!
