I've finished the development of this part. It was a bit difficult, especially to measure the curved surfaces and then the Excel acrobatics to generate their Ldraw counterpart. I think the result did worth the effort. I submit the part to part (...) (22 years ago, 29-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Shouldn't it be a forward slash (s/6898s01.dat)? Parts use forward slash in the actual part code (which is good, because it makes viewers in other operating systems slightly easier to make). --Travis (22 years ago, 29-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

(...) You can do it in LDAO as well, although there's no direct "round my decimals to 3 places" command. First, open your file in the editor. Second, go to Options | Decimals, and enter 3. Then put a line "0 SCALE 1" at the beginning of the block of (...) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Great work. The subpart naming standard(s)n are documented at (URL) So, I'd rather your subpart were named s6898s01.dat. Submitting a new part to the Parts Tracker is easy. You need to register as an LDraw.org user (at (URL)) and then request (...) (22 years ago, 26-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
