If I remember correctly, I subfiled the clip-on portion for the octagonal and triangular clip-on signs. Not a big deal, but you could use the subfile on yours for consistency. -John Van "Franklin W. Cain" <fwcain@yahoo.com> wrote in message (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

OK, here's a the main part of the pattern (no quads between the pattern yet, and still the mouth, outer edges and eyes to do, plus the upper part of the pattern needs to be angled back instead of in a vertical plane!), any criticism you want to (...)

ACK! That's gonna be a toughie! Good luck. One of my little "secrets" is that I often "draw" the face in a two-dimensional image (i.e., Z = -13 for all points on this preliminary image), and then check the "Front View" box in MLCAD to make sure the (...)

Just to let everyone know I'm tentatively starting the Darth Maul head, but as it's my first attempt at a part I'm going to wait until I've finished before sorting out the pattern number as I may not get chance to complete it. I've already done 1/4 (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

OK, folks. I've learned a lot since I first made this part, and now I have "fixed" everything (I think...). Now no subparts are required, and I removed the "no-no's" (type 2 lines outlining the patterns). This part is just an ordinary .dat file now, (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
