(...) Just view them in LDraw (Over left front) at 50% and you should see (they do render OK in LDLite).

A note on the 9V Mini-motor: There is a box3#8.dat primitive which Ldlite is currently unable to draw. This primitive forms the wire notch on the top of the motor, but since the voting page is done with Ldlite, a hole exixts. Terry, maybe you could (...) (26 years ago, 23-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
