That sounds fine Philo; enjoy your holiday. It will probably take me at least another week or two to finish the whole model anyway, so I’ll put in a placeholder part and replace it with 92906 when it shows up on the Parts Tracker. You can see my placeholder in this image (in green).

Upon further examination, this part is not as easy as I thought. Although one end is just an axle, the socket end is actually spherical on the inside which I imagine is difficult to create with triangles. Hopefully there is a primitive which will help with this.

On a related matter, I have just procured the new Unimog (8110) and have been admiring the new tyres (94.3x38R, part 92912). From what I can tell, they are nearly identical scaled up versions of the older 62.4x20 tyres (part 32019) which should make parts authoring relatively simple.

Hi Eric, Done! (URL) (...) Indeed, it was not so easy! (...) Scaled-up 32019 is a very good mock-up, but 92912 has 30 patterns on its track, vs. 36 for 32019... Philo PS: Perhaps you should move to the new (URL) LDraw forum>? (13 years ago, 5-Sep-11, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
