I'd've just made the entire 'flat' surface of the shield's front from a
single 4-4disc.dat.

MLCad (or maybe Word) decided to use scientific notation for some very small
numbers. For example, "1.29e-005" = 0.0000129, which you probably just
meant to be zero. You'll want to change those numbers to the regular
format. I.e, "0". ;)
The part looks good. :)
