Hi Everybody! This my first Intentional post to this group, and I hope it is in the right place. I was wondering if there was an LDraw Part Creation Tutorial. I made some bitmaps of Starwars decorations, and I'd like to make them into actual parts, (...) (26 years ago, 12-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
