(...) No, moving the hose segments to parts/s/ would NOT prevent the shrinkage problem. It doesn't matter whether a part is located in PARTS or PARTS/S, it is still considered as a part. Whenever a (sub-)part is referenced from another part, it is (...) (24 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Actually, by the guidelines for parts I posted, the flex-axle subparts should be in the parts directory. Moving the hose segments to parts/s/ would prevent the shrinkage problem, but I think there are better solutions. Steve (24 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)

I know that optimizing discs by replacing triangles with quads has not been very popular as many renderers splut quads up (...) (24 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
