 | | Why is the Thickness of Liftarms changing? —Paul Easter
|
| | | This part is on the Part Tracker; (URL) 32278 I have has a thickness of .0309" which is approximately 19.77LDU. Why are several of these liftarms getting changed to 18LDU? Paul (21 years ago, 31-Dec-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | | | | (...) Yes that seems strange, as far as I can tell all these liftarms are the same width as a 1xN brick, so should be modelled as 20LDU as the bricks are. ROSCO (21 years ago, 31-Dec-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | | | | (...) I've measured these and several others have as well and we all got 18 LDU -Orion (21 years ago, 1-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | | | | | (...) I confirm Pauls measurement. I compared it with a brick and it has the same thickness. This is also needed to connect a pin with the holes. CU Bernd (21 years ago, 1-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Liftarms are narrower than bricks, you don't even need a caliper to see it : (URL) ...and measured with a caliper : brick width: 7.8mm liftarm width: 7.4mm liftarm height: 7.8mm As (...)

| | | | (...) Thank you for this illustration. I see your point. These parts should have been originally modeled rotated 90 degrees around Z so that the liftarm "thickness" would have been the same a brick "width". I think I can safely say that I have (...)
