  Re: Idea: How starting to work for a unique Lego piece naming convention?
 
(...) Sybrand, Since you're looking at an incredibly huge undertaking, be sure to seek out and make the most of every last bit of info you can find on the net about anything related to this.

  Re: Idea: How starting to work for a unique Lego piece naming convention?
 
I think that it would be unwise to use words such as vertical clip or gable in part nomenclatures. The gable end piece was designed to be used to complete the gable of a roof, yet it might be used for an entirely different purpose. A 1 x 1 with (...)

  Re: Parts Database (Was: Idea: ... Lego piece naming convention?)
 
(...) EXCELLENT IDEA, Tore! Having that searchable would help a lot. Though it seems an odd characteristic to include, and no one would permanently categorize a piece by number of studs ('cept bricks, plates, and tiles), it is very helpful in (...)

  Parts Database (Was: Idea: ... Lego piece naming convention?)
 
So far, I've only used LDraw's partlist and Lutz's, but I must say Steve's looks very promising. When it comes to Lego databases, there is an infinite amount of data we all wish to enter or seek on. Here's my two ideas to make Mission Impossible a (...) (25 years ago, 6-Jul-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) To start with the second point you mention: I don't think anyone should be obliged to used the `standard' nomenclature.
