  How does the inliner tool handle the colours 16 and 24?
 
How does the inliner tool handle the colours 16 and 24 in parts that are inlined? Ok, 16 is pretty obvious, simply substitute 16 with the colour of the part to be inlined. But 24? Does the inliner need a table of the conversions? I'm just curious. (...) (26 years ago, 13-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Number for "Technic Friction Peg with Towball"?  [DAT]
 
Strangely (since it is an easy part), noone has made the Technic Friction Peg with Towball yet. So I made a draft for that part (included below). However, I cannot find any number for it. Anybody know? Fredrik 0 Technic Friction Peg with Towball 0 (...) (26 years ago, 13-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Non-TLG Parts
 
Actually, I already have one of these. :/ Haven't modeled it in L-Draw though so maybe I'd better shut up before this thread gets sent to one o' them off-topic groups. Doug (...) (26 years ago, 13-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Todd Lehman wrote in message ... (...) made (...) Okay, Todd, point taken. Push the envelope too hard and its bound to burst ;-}. Don't you think milling the studs to .01" and microgrinding the excess would work better? Oh, and apply some toulene (...) (26 years ago, 14-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Non-TLG Parts
 
(...) I feel a sudden urge coming on to take a batch of 1x10 plates to the belt sander and make 1x10 tiles. Then I'll shave off the stud on a classic smiley and have a realistic Jean-Luc Picard head. He'll need to sit in a comfy reclining chair, so (...) (26 years ago, 13-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Non-TLG Parts
 
Okay, I think I see the consensus on "home made" parts in LDraw. How about a slightly different twist? One of the messages in build group mentioned he used the loops off of broken 1 X 1 with side loops to get a female to female connection. Would it (...) (26 years ago, 14-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Proper tiles (Was: Clone "semi-bricks" (Was: Non-TLG Parts))
 
(...) Actually, this adds weight to our recent use of subpart files for the non- decorated sections of parts which are frequently decorated. If this had been done from the start (no criticism implied) we would now only have to "fix" the subparts - (...) (26 years ago, 13-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Parts Maintenance Idea
 
(...) A couple of occasions. Not much can be done about it. It requires that any person who had used that part in a model to go back and manually update it to the correct number. (...) As far as the 3-digit (or less) numbers in LDraw goes, I try to (...) (26 years ago, 13-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: DOS Makelist (was Re: Uber-install (was Re: Organizing the Si te Revamp))
 
(...) And please remember to "pad" the right side out to the same width as the current parts.lst file has - it is fixed at 79 characters width. If you don't, the parts view in LEdit gets real messy. -- Terry K -- (26 years ago, 13-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: News-by-Mail digests
 
(...) You may want to consider switching to a real e-mail client. :) Just kidding mostly, but I'm using a little shareware program called Becky! Internet Mail that seems to handle the thousands of messages I have in my LCAD folder just fine. :) (26 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Non-TLG Parts
 
(...) That is unfortunate. It just has always seemed logical for the element to exist, but have never been able to reason out why it doesn't. I had hoped that it did exist and that I had somehow missed it along the line. Oh, well... Roy P. S. I'm (...) (26 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Non-TLG Parts
 
(...) The Internet thrives upon discussion. Without it, the net would be void and without substance. The multicast transfer of ideas causes the net to grow and become more coherent. In a sense, this also applies to us. (1) Nothing is lost from (...) (26 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Proper tiles (Was: Clone "semi-bricks" (Was: Non-TLG Parts))
 
(...) Sure, no problem, I'll get right on it. At the same time, I'll also shave the excess 1LDU off the ends of all the cross-axles, OK? ;) Steve (26 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Non-TLG Parts
 
(...) The only problem with this for me is that I'm along for the ride because of the LDraw program and not necessarily for LEGO. I know they are pretty closly related now, but that may not be completely true in the future. James program is amazing (...) (26 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  RE: Non-TLG Parts
 
Aside from the clone, other, and fictitious ( Is it fiction if its real? ) parts questions, I began reading to LCAD discussion mainly because of LDRAW. The fact that LDRAW and LEGO interests functioned together pleased me to no end, but I really (...) (26 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
