Bram, I think the reason we would have a submodel for that submodel is because it is an official submodel. We would inline it because it is stationary; it can't be moved from where it is. Take a look at a scan of the instructions, it might help to (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

This is wierd. It seems that some of the cone pieces are referenced badly. I ran a couple of previous updates, but they didn't fix it. 3939 is coming as 3951 and 3942 is 3939. 3951 comes in fine with its own number. Did I miss something? If not, is (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
