you wish to mix real LEGO with Modulex, build a separate Modulex

I think it's better to do it this way. What do you think?

I think the scale of Modulex parts should hardcoded (62.5% of normal
size in dat-code). No separation. So it has the same norm as the
"normal" Lego parts (1 mm = 2.5 LDU).

CU Bernd

Have you really considered the consequenses when modelling? It will be almost
impossible to calculate the positions of the parts. Or at least very, very time
consuming.

(...) I'm inclined to agree, as I have been struggling with this conceptual problem, since borrowing a selection of Modulex with the intention of authoring some parts for LDraw. Are there any Modulex parts that _do_ actually bind with regular LEGO? (...) (21 years ago, 19-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
