I know that there are plenty of counter examples--eg, the opposite side
wings where James just used a mirror matrix-- but I think it may have
been a guideline and may be one we want to continue.

| (...) It wouldn't always be possible to orient parts that way. For example, the giant space wheel (makes me think of 2001) has side-mounted studs. So should it be oriented laying down, just so the studs face upward? Steve (26 years ago, 5-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad)
