quadrilateral.  The whole part is also 2 LDU short of being three bricks high

for some reason).
If I create part 6085 Windscreen Bottom (Aquanaut Sub), should I reuse parts
from 6084 (which might have other measurement errors) or should I start from
scratch, which might mean that the parts won't line up correctly?
TIA for a speedy response,

Bram,
If its enough out of position to make a big difference, I'd start from
scratch.  Even though 6084 is an official release, if is off, it should be
ammended in future releases.  I believe I've noticed errors in that part when
I designed with it once, precicely what you said - a few LDU short of 3 bricks
tall.  If you design the part from scratch then it might also be easier to
make a correct version of 6084, if I (vaguely) understand the nature of parts
authoring correctly.
