Nice tool! It was really helpful. I think you would agree, if you take a • look
on the 2951 i posted in cad.dat.parts, that the second bracket would have • been
a pain without that tool:)

I know, that's why I spent so many hours developing it. Sad thing LDraw • doesn't
support some of the commands, like FOR - TO -NEXT.
Imagine someone got this crazy idea of making the 50x50 Classic Baseplate.
2500 studs=2500 LDraw lines, but only 5 LDS lines:

for z=-490 to 490 step 20
for x=-490 to 490 step 20
  stud.dat x 0 z
next x
next z

Now THAT would be a pain to do without LDS...


LDAO's Gridder works well for things like this, too.
