LOL.  I meant the other half of the chopped part.  :-,

Actually...hmm.  Which "other half"?  There are 3 main "body" areas of the
part, and two "bridge" areas...there'd be something like 9 useful combinations

modular fashion.  The ball and axle pieces are pretty standard, so if we could
get the middle "body" piece separate, then virtually any customized Throwbot
piece could be modeled fairly easily.

I think for LDraw purposes, one can ignore whether the molded-pneumatic-thingys
are chopped off, right?
