I made one if these following Steve's suggestion. the primitive file simply
points to the stud2 primitive, doubling the x and z and multiplying the y by 2.4

Hmm.  That's a height of 9.6LDU.  Could we round that to 10, or would that
be way off?

Regarding this and the wall thickness, I don't have an instrument to accurately
measure. I actually scaled the model up on my computer screen until the body
matched, then compared the stud height,holding a brick to the screen. I'd love
it if someone could post some actual dimensions to work with.

...


If we simply want to scale existing p-files, then I'd prefer not to make
new p-files, but simply do the scaling in the parts files.  Unless there's
some compelling reason to do otherwise.

I think I agreee, except where a simple doubling doesn't work, as in the case of
using the stud2.dat for the Duplo stud

I'll dig out some DUPLO bricks, and look at them more closely. (...) Hmm. That's a height (...) (23 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
