(...) Yeah, but only when the rotation point is in a normal position. I agree with Sproat, because the hinges will still be easy to position if left unturned. Also, whenever they are turned, it will most likely be in a sub model, so the insertion (...) (25 years ago, 25-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) 1. whoops. Dang, I mindlessly pasted the images into gif file without thinking. I will delete those. 2. The plates will be fixed. I made the decision to go ahead and release the parts as-is, and wait for a fix from Steve. -- Terry K -- (25 years ago, 25-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) You are correct, sir. I was aware of that, and Steve Bliss has already said he will fix those of his that are in error, as well as an original piece by James. At the time he said this, I already had the update all ready to go, and so decided (...) (25 years ago, 25-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Agreed. Rotation is the bigger pain. (...) In LEdit, I occasionally add an imaginary new piece, "rotate.dat", after the piece I want to rotate. Move it to the point where I want it, then set the rotation on that point. Move back up a line to (...) (25 years ago, 25-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
