(...) note: I've made toroidal bits before, using an approach similar to 2741c.dat, except I built 2741c.dat out of a 4-4cyli.dat and some 2-4cyls.dat. The reason we had the recent discussions about standardized torus p-files was so it would be easy (...) (24 years ago, 1-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

I have defined a tore that does not use the tore primitive because the standard primitive where to rough for a tore of that diameter. The 48 version was to detailed for me. The file 2741c.dat could be a base for a new sort of tore primitive. It has (...) (24 years ago, 28-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
