Please LMKWYT.

EXCELLENT!
That is SO cool!  I love it!

Thanks for all the great comments!

My nephew has been churning out various pod designs for the past week,
but he is going to flip when I show him this.   :-)

I built one engine and the pod IRL, and could probably build the other
engine.  You'll probably be able to build a complete one with your nephew
since you have many more pieces than I do.  I'll probably wait to post
the DAT file until the SW parts become official, though.

BTW, those are good connecting lines, what did you use for them?

I used John Van's hose-creating spread-sheet.  I replaced all the
references to 754?.dat with a 14 LDU long cylinder to get rid of the
gaps.  Since the lines aren't flexed much, the line turned out
surprisingly well.

(...) I can't wait to see the dat file. Excellent engine pods - they really do give it that "massively overpowered" aspect. (...) They sure did. I would have guessed you had used one of the 'rope' making include files for POV. -- Terry K -- (25 years ago, 29-May-99, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Where could we track down a copy of that spread sheet? (25 years ago, 31-May-99, to lugnet.cad)
