(...) Not sure what you mean - it doesn't check if a line has its ends properly ending on a surface vertex. (loosely related) I have a pending update for edger2 that check if the angle of existing condlines matches angle between surfaces. If the (...) (14 years ago, 22-Sep-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Ok so it's been a few years, but I took another look at this. Did anybody ever make a twist primitive? It appears like all you need to do is something like this. Don 0 Wedge 4 x 2 Sloped Left 0 Name: 43721.dat 0 Author: Donald Sutter 0 (...) (14 years ago, 22-Sep-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Ah, I was not. Very interesting. I'm still plowing ahead with upgrading Edger regardless because I'd like that built into this tool, but options like making inlining parts optional and not adding conditional lines within a certain angle (...) (14 years ago, 21-Sep-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Well, at least splitting into triangles at the middle would produce a fairly clean result in that it would eliminate artifacts, but at the cost of creating extra triangles.

(...) Actually original parts only have triangles and have been merged by stl2dat (the 4th batch used a different concerter and no triangle to quad merge is done). That said, I had a look at m62696, there are only 5 non-coplanar quads, all within (...) (14 years ago, 16-Sep-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

I've moved on to looking at part 62696, "Minifig Hair Ponytail with Long Bangs" (x1930 on Peeron), and I found the part needs a lot of cleanup.
