(...) First a bit of 'fan mail': Thanks beyond words, Michael! As an old{er|ish} <grin> AutoCAD/CASE tool user, I can appreciate the amount of work you've put into your tool-set already.

  Re: Blue Hopper Car Mania...
 
(...) Right, it's inaccurate. A better name Would be "Technic Pin 1/2 with Stud". That would match up with part #6587, Technic Axle 3 with Stud. Steve (25 years ago, 14-Oct-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun, lugnet.cad.dev)

  Next MLCad Release
 
Hy all MLCad-Fans Since the discussion about the vertex things still is ongoing, I plan to do the following now. I'll release version 1.5 within the next days, this version will have a landscape generator and a picture generator (don't ask what it (...) (25 years ago, 14-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Track parts naming scheme survey
 
Yes! Excellent compromise! It's got the key stuff up front and the fact that not all parts are 4.5v specific or 9v specific comes out clearly. Adviesbureau Noord/Zuidlijn wrote: <very nice work, all of which I snipped> (...) I'll say! :-) Now say (...) (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
