Hello all. I am a new LDRAW/MLCAD user, and am learning quickly. Today, for
the fun of it, and for learning purposes, I built up a model of the tow

(...) Thanks, Dean, for sending those parts to me privately. While they look great, the tower DAT isn't the one I'm looking for. The one in set 6468 is a simple 2 x 4 tile base with the two sides of the tower protruding directly up from both long (...) (23 years ago, 10-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
