We should have a lugnet.cad.dat.clones group, now that someone over on RTL is doing megablocks parts. bThe group would be expressly for posting clone lego parts, official sets and MOC's. -- Jonathan Wilson wilsonj@xoommail.com (URL) (25 years ago, 1-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) MAX2DAT isn't really meant to be a comprehensive part authoring tool... it's easy to build simple objects (like a 2x2 tile or 1x1 round plate) directly in LEdit with primatives... but objects like complex technic pieces, wheels, etc often have (...) (25 years ago, 1-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Hello, Ok guys, I already announced that I coded such a tool in Java. At present, only one Ldrawer has asked for the code. In fact, it's an alpha release. Thus, I should find beta testers first. Anyway it has already translated some pieces! Here is (...) (25 years ago, 30-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
