I'm trying to create an LDraw description of a construction with a large number
of Pneumatic elements. Using complete cylinders (either extended or retracted)
or switches (neutral position) will make creating the file very hard and may not
always be feasible. I have installed the full unofficial parts library, but I
cannot seem to find the parts I'm looking for (cylinder 'chamber' and piston
separately - same for new switches) and before I resort to hacking some files
I'd like to know if anyone can give me some pointers on how to do this.
Many thanks in advance.
