Well, the cone with cutout just happens to be what I've been working on.  I
used 3 1-4 cones around the top and sides.  Does L3P substitute for all the
cone primitives?  In any case I'll post what I've got to cad.dat, probably
tommorow.

(...) I believe the newest L3P is totally up-to-date on primitive substitutions, but the previous did not substitute all cones. BTW, which cones did you use? I meas-timated the radii as 5 and 9, so the existing conic primitives don't fit very well. (...) (27 years ago, 19-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
