I've never authored lego parts for ldraw, but I did for pov-ray (at the time
I was using Anton Raves library which is very good (a lot more detailed than
ldraw, I haven't tried l3P so I don't know the quality of the output) but it
was lacking some pieces I needed (to be fair I wanted to author pieces to
work with pov which I enjoyed a lot). All this to say that I definitely
recommand the use of a caliper. BTW if anybody can check my web page and
tell me what they think of the few renderings I've made I'd be glad (keep in
mind it was pure pov I didn't know ldraw existed at the time).
Here is my web page address:
