hmm ... looks like there are more versions of this pattern out there. I based
the re-engineering on this scan:

<<http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Hollywood/Images/3069bp0b_scan.jpg>>

I have to admit that the quality of the scan is not the best and the passage:
real part -> scan -> vector graphics file -> dxf file -> dat file (just consider
the rounding form 6 digits to 3) gives room to a lot of error an mismatches, but
this is the best I could do or was willing to do ("the vertical gaps between the
bricks are smaller" for example was an authors choice to disthinguish them
better in a MLCad or LDview. initially I even tried to read what was written,
but in the end ... how much detail is enough and how much is too much ;-)

(...) There alway tends to be a minute amount a variation between pattern printings from brick to brick. I think your optimizations are well within accpetible limits. After all, we're not going for archival quality just the general idea. -Orion (23 years ago, 13-Nov-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
