Also here is an optimised 4-4disc which uses seven quads to replace 16 triangles which results in 14 triangles if split up. I know that optimizing discs by replacing triangles with quads has not been very popular as many renderers splut quads up (...) (22 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
