Well, what should we call it?

I don't know what to call it, maybe "Bellville Luggage"?


www.peeron.com calls it Case Oval.
I don't know, it seems like it's not only used in Belville sets. (

Anyhow, I gave it a spin in a few of the CAD programs and
noticed a few odd things I'd like to discuss.  First, the
use of half cylinders separated by quad spacers seems to
produce some anomalies with the optional lines.  The optional
lines at the top of the handbag where the cylinders meet the
spacer quad are missing.

I have noticed that kind of problems too. It must be due to the current
primitives, and not flaws in my parts authoring.

One thing I did notice though is the need of using hi-res primitives. The
problem is that there are no hi-res versions of 1-4rin12 or 2-4rin12, or
1-4rin13 or 2-4rin13. Maybe they would also reduce the optional line related
problem?


Thanks for your time,

(...) I agree. I think the problem is that the current half cylinder primitives expect to be mated with other cylinder primitives to create a whole cylinder. Connect edge A with optional line to edge B without optional line. But connect edge A to (...) (23 years ago, 13-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad)

(...) I'm not sure where to go with this one. Generally, parts like this go into Minifig Accessory. But this part isn't exactly minifig scale. Hmm. (...) I don't think so.
