| | | | | | | I think I'd have to disagree with you Mladen. If those were pneumatic or hydraulically driven arms or forks like on a fork lift, they'd probably be plenty strong. Anything bigger, while perhaps more aesthetically pleasing, would most likely leave (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

| | | | | | | | Sorry about the last message; sounded kinda rude. Anyway, yeah they (claws) would look more like forks if they were longer, but then how would the operator get out while carrying a load? Oh well, seems like every loader would have that problem (...)

| | | | I love the loader, but the minifig seems to hav had a melt down. When I load it into mlcad, or convert it with L3P, the minifig parts are all stacked on top of each other like they were not transformed or rotated. Is anyone else seing this? -Chuck (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

MLCAD and L3P don't recognize the LDLite commands, so they render incorrectly. BTW: the newest (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
