(...) Maybe I'm blind (really, just ask my optometrist), but I don't see where such a 'bagel torus' would be used on the jetpack. Could you elaborate/specify a bit? I suppose we should have thought of the 1:1 torus when we worked out the (...) (22 years ago, 12-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

(...) Yes, I can. If you have taken a look at the rough mockups I posted in CAD/PARTS, you will see a reference to a subfile called "fettorus.dat". This is in fact the primitive in question (although scaled up by a factor of 8), and it is used as (...) (22 years ago, 12-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

(...) :-/ (...) My spreadsheet gives me an error when I try to give it 1 for the major radius, however, If I give it 1.000001(or something like that) it gives me a workable file.

(...) Could we go with t04x0100.dat instead? The 't' would be to keep all the torus files together. Only the 'outer' primitives would be made for these >1:1 toruses, right?

(...) Forgive me if I seem a little confused, here, but should I download Paul's file(s) for use? Or create my own? And do I name it t04x0100.dat, or is this not decided yet?
