Interesting.  Because of the very noticable difference in POV-Ray when
circle-based primitives are used, I would suggest using the disc and cyli
primitives whenever possible.  Perhaps we should update the macaroni brick • to
use the primitive's as well.

OK, then before I finish this part, could we have a quick discussion on this
among the Parts Authors? (1)

I haven't heard anything about this, so I'm going to go ahead and finish the
part with the original curve.


I think the cad.dev membership has fallen into a deep sleep, or else everyone
is exhausted from panning jw's parts and doesn't want to think about parts for
a while.  Or maybe they've started a cad.dev.parts group and forgot to tell us
:-)

I'm curious, how different is the curve used on the macaroni brick from the 1-
4cyli.dat?

(...) The Primitive is done with 16 faces. The curve that makes up the outer edge of 3063 and my part has 32 faces. (8 per quarter). --Karim (25 years ago, 2-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
