Hi, I've been working a bit with flexible hoses lately, and I've
noticed an odd thing about the parts which make up the bent version of
the 8.5L flexible hose.

The part 754.dat

    http://www.lugnet.com/cad/ldraw/parts/ref/search.cgi?q=754

is used as a hose segment, about 50 of them go into a single hose.
The segment itself has a nice rounded outside.

The part 756.dat

    http://www.lugnet.com/cad/ldraw/parts/ref/search.cgi?q=756

is used in the centre of the hose, only once.  This part has a thin
cylinder as a segment, not a nice rounded one like 754.dat above.

You might need to zoom in on the parts to see the difference more
clearly.

Is there any reason for this difference?  If it's not, I would like to
suggest that the 756.dat gets updated to have the same rounded outside
like 754.dat.  I'm prepared to do the work myself, but I would like to
ask first, in case there is some special reason for the state of the
parts right now.


I updated the 754.dat to make it more realistic, but obviously failed to do so for 756.  Feel free to improve the 756.dat!

(...) Thanks for clearing that up! In that case, I'll submit the 756.dat I just posted to lugnet.cad.dat.parts to Steve Bliss. Since it is an improvement of an existing part, it shouldn't require a vote, right? Fredrik (25 years ago, 19-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
