| | | I noticed some problems/errors with the type-"5" (conditional edge) lines, so I fixed 'em. The file is 110 kb.... :-P I see a problem with the CATEGORY for this piece. As a "radar dish", its CATEGORY is "Space", and yet this specific patterned piece (...) (24 years ago, 24-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | | | | So.... What would be the CATEGORY for this part, then? "Radar Dish"? ;-) Or "Cylinder"? (As in "Cylinder Radar Dish...") If we're gonna do it, how 'bout we get started now? (A new year, a new beginning... :-) Thanks, Franklin (24 years ago, 30-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | | | | | | (...) "Spherical section"? It's not a cylinder except at the edges and Radar Dish is a usage, not a description of shape the way "modified plate" is, for example. I am not sure we can cause things to change easily. But if we can, we should get it (...) (24 years ago, 30-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

But there are number of current Train parts that should be moved into other areas. (...) Right. But there are more pressing issues, (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
