The baseplates I have vary in printing quality with the pattern "moving" by +/-
3degrees and/or +/- 2mm so in some cases I've picked the mathematically easiest
location. All the parts were created via MS-Excel so if anyone wants to
"improve" them, especially the curved sections, email me and I'll send the
spreadsheet with all the point calculations.
(...) Is this generally applicable to doing other printed baseplates? Can you share that spread publicly, perhaps on a website somewhere? It seems a nifty thing. Thanks for your efforts! (21 years ago, 7-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
As I'm almost in a position to upload these 3 road plates to the parts tracker I have a few questions 1) what are the correct part numbers? 44336p01/44342p01/44341p01 or some other identifier to indicate a patterned part?
