Tonight I hammered out the Droid Wheel Gear. I used lots of sub parts, and I think it is pretty efficient, especially considering how many fins and teeth this thing has! I will post the dats in a follow up in plain text. (2 URLs) (19 years ago, 1-Dec-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

Ok, here is the dat file reposted, one more time. It doesn't include any of your suggestions yet. I will work on that. Thanks for the feedback. I'll look at the model again and see if I can rig it up with sub-parts. I was worried that sub-parts will (...) (19 years ago, 1-Dec-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) I thought about suggesting that, but unless you skip the polygons around the outside of the blade, (and put them into a higher-level "full blade" sub-part), this will add new polygons, since the polygons around the outside of the blade span (...)

Uhm, it's the rotation VECTOR I need... The rotation matrix would just screw up the dimensions of the primitive. So does anyone have a program or formula that can give me the rotation vector of a triangle? -NB (19 years ago, 27-Nov-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Hi I'm working on a couple of LDraw parts, and need know a way to calculate a rotation matrix that corresponds to a quad (triangle), so that I can place a 1-4 edge.dat on it at the correct angle: Can anyone tell me how to do it?
