Ok, I've made significant progress on this part (Thanks John! Thanks
Steve!). In the process, I have made 3 "new" primitives (actually
modifications of existing ones):
1-4con1
1-4ring3
1-4ring10
These were necessary to maintain the geometry, though I could inline
them, but I think that the general trend is towards using primitives for
rounded objects.
I'm having a bit of trouble at the very tip of the canopy, where a VERY
steep cone sort of turns into a 3-axis contoured bevel that is not quite
spherical. What is the best way to treat this? I'll post the dat files
to lugnet.cad.dat.parts for people to look at tonight (I'm rushed right
now.. gotta run to an appointment)..

| (...) There is still a 'primitives committee' which discusses new primitives before they are released. We decided awhile ago to not introduce new primitive files, until/unless they were actually used in a file. Which is why the ldraw/p/ directory (...) (25 years ago, 13-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
