(...) So I'm sitting here staring at my part and all of the quads I've used to make it up wondering, how do I minimize T-junctions? Are there primatives that can replace the quads/ triangles? I have a LOT of T-junctions in what I've made up so far. (...) (16 years ago, 26-Aug-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Thanks, Things are slowly working themselves out as I get to know some new programs - and how to identify errors that come up and such. Hopefully, I'll be ready to submit an initial 3069bpx28.dat soon. Quad2Dat has become really helpful. Ben (16 years ago, 24-Aug-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) You should not "stack" the colors. Each color is only in one area. For example if you have a red ring around a yellow disc you have to model the yellow disc and a red ring around it and not stack a red disc over the yellow ring. All surfaces (...)

Hi, Again while going through LGEO, i discovered 58231.DAT to be Slope 33 3 x 6, old version (as 3939), only 58181.DAT is new version without inner walls. All real parts 58181 I own have numbers 58181 and 58231 molded, so I think 58231.DAT should (...) (16 years ago, 21-Jul-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
