| | | | (...) I realize that primitives which are sized to 1LDU are easier to use, but a set of primitives which don't all use the same sizing are *harder* to use overall, because the author has to remember which sizing to use for which primitives.

| | | | | (...) You're right about that, but if you look at the primitives not all are based on a 2x2x2 cube, some are based on a 2x1x2 cube, or a 1x1x2 cube(maybe). Not to mention some have top and side faces, missing lines on two sides, ect. To use them (...) (25 years ago, 30-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives, lugnet.cad.dev)
