Since this was posted to .cad instead of .cad.dev, here it is again: (...) There is the word "LEGO" on the studs... we could orient pieces so that "LEGO" is right-side up when seen from the front 3/4 view (for pieces with studs up, of course) (...) (...) (26 years ago, 24-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) In real life the joins between the curved surfaces are smoothed. I approximated this by drawing the cylinders, but missing out the junction lines you refer to. It is a tricky part to model accurately and has no possible use (IMHO) except (...) (26 years ago, 24-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Correcting positioning and rotational errors can be done when/if a part renumbered. Which doesn't really happen all that often (it just seems like it). Steve (26 years ago, 24-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I wondered about that? Is it a problem if the surfaces are the same color? I'm asking because (a) I've used mono-colored coincident surfaces before, and (b) I'm working on one now. The O in the Octan logo is round on the outside, but oval'ed (...) (26 years ago, 24-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
