The Steering Arms I have are clearly marked '6540'. So this is one of those cases where we ought to have an 'A' and a 'B' part?

(...) Just generate the mesh once. The part-file would be static, with one rough/broken side. It's still a lot of work for just one element -- it'd be easier to take the existing part-file, and just break it in half. Steve (26 years ago, 16-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Yep, that was EXACTLY what I was thinking of. The convertor should create the needed views (all the rotations), and if it can handle the scaling too, so much the better.

The other day I was doing an inventory of my 8880 Super Car set and I came across an LDraw part inconsistency; The 6540 - Technic Steering Arm Large, seems to be modeled differently than the 6540's that came with my Super Car.
