Wow. I at least keep Lego around the house so I can tell myself I play with Ldraw to make records of my son's and my creations :-) A suggestion: if there is a difficult pattern or part you want to work on, ask around here for someone willing to loan (...)

(...) I believe that all bricks, tiles, plates, and all parts with studs on top have y=0 just below the studs and above the "body"? /Lars (26 years ago, 24-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: My proposal for the orientation of new elements
 
(...) We already have a convention for this, I think. Parts with studs should have the top of the part (excluding the studs) in the X-Z-plane, and otherwise be centered. Of course, special parts need special rules. An example is the "joystick" (...) (26 years ago, 24-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
