   Hello all, I have recently been working on 57587.dat, “Technic Cylinder 6 x 6 x 4 with Dome Top” (though I have it here titled as “Technic Dome 7 x 7 x 5” because IMHO it’s more like a dome than a cylinder).

I’ve noticed the part origin is a problem once more, and thus I’m asking if people would have ideas on where the origin is going to be instead of submitting the thing to the tracker; if I ask now I guess I get responses earlier (and the problem is quicker sorted out).

So the question is: where does the origin go in 57587.dat? I have uploaded the part in MPD form as it is at the time of writing this post here.

The X- and Y-axes are sure obvious, to the center of the part. The emphasis of this question is the origin on the Z-axis.

I would rotate that part, so it is easier to identify this part as a dome. Then I think the top should be at Y=0. I have already send a manipulated version of your mpd file to your address.

(...) Interesting... I'm agreeing with you, as it seems other dome parts have their top pointing upwards so I shall do it this way. Thank you. (15 years ago, 9-May-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
