Fredrik you are right, the axle is too thin.

Steve, the reason is because I modelise the parts with a CAD CAM program then I convert the part to dat with my program
STL2AT. For the moment, this program recognize only cylindric primitives. I will try to add the recognition of more
primitives, but that's not easy. For the moment, I update manually the dat file to substitute facet with primitives.

I will post a corrected part soon.

(...) Marc, Fredrik's post prompted me to look more closely at this part. I noticed that there are references to any of the axle primitives. Is there a reason you did not use any of these primitive files in your file? Steve (26 years ago, 28-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
