(...) awhile ago? Or maybe it was Fredrick... It seems like maybe the file wasn't posted on lugnet for some reason, so you might have to search for messages talking about the part, and see if you can get a link offsite. Steve (24 years ago, 26-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

I highly recommend Fredrik's LDraw-Mode. It will take you a little while to find the Emacs stuff and install it, plus some time to figure out how to bend stuff. But once you make the initial investment it is very easy to create wonderful curving (...) (24 years ago, 26-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) I don't know Rhino, but what I can say stl2dat can handle ascii and binary stl format. If Rhino can only produce stl data in the positive quadrant, stl2dat can change the origin in the dat file with the -o x y z option. The most tricky point (...)

(...) It's generally quite difficult to model the flexible elements. I've made major mode for Emacs (an editor) which adds functions to model some bent elements. Take a look at some tutorials here: (URL) included some instructions as to how to (...) (24 years ago, 26-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) I think it is quite correct of you to add the edge lines where there is sharp corners in the actual part. The ones you did look correctly done to me. If you feel brave, you could also try to add conditional edge lines along the cat, but I (...) (24 years ago, 26-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Thanks! The edge lines I put in for Ldraw's and MLcad's sake; they make it easier to see the important features of the cat's face, plus the edge along the bottom I think is important to preserve. In POV-Ray of course they vanish, though. I (...) (24 years ago, 25-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) I think it's a pretty amazing first part! Nice work. I'm not sure about use of the edge lines on things like the eyes, etc. These get lost when you POV. If there really are marks or grooves in the part there, you may want to try to model them. (...) (24 years ago, 25-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Sounds like this is not the part number. Many parts have numbers of the form "n nn" or "n-nn" which probably refer to indivudual sites within the injection mould. Only the larger ones have room to include the TLC part number, typically in the (...) (24 years ago, 25-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Interesting... I never noticed the part numbers before. On the cat, all I can see is some writing in the stud hole underneath: (c) LEGO 1 07 That 7 might be a 1; it's very hard to tell because it's at the very edge. However 1 07 as far as I (...)

(...) Welcome!!! I just looked at the cat part. Pretty good for a first part! But i can not help you with the part number, Although it should be printed some where on the part. Any how, welcome as a member to the CAD Community. C-Ya!! --Austin (24 years ago, 25-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
