As an example of how I can't find parts in our current system, I am asking about this part. It probably exists and I missed it. - It is a member of the 2-3 finger hinge system. - it has a 3 finger hinge at one end - this joins a rod system sized rod (...)

A good set of keywords and more exposure of LDList (which is very useful for finding parts) would probably benefit the parts library, but it'd be such a pain to add all those keywords...

(...) You're right, but we don't have to add keywords to *every* file. Just the ones that are hard to find. The hinge-rod-with-end-stud is definitely one of the part files that needs keywords added. Steve (24 years ago, 27-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) LDList is Anders Isaakson's program to search the LDraw parts. It's very handy and lightweight. I don't have a link handy, but if you search (URL), you should dig one up. Steve (24 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
