Here are my comments on the remainder of the parts in the vote.


3900.dat    Minifig Tool Signal Holder (needs work)
- Interesting positioning of the part - not centered on a stud, not
  positioned to be gripped by a minifig.


This really should be fixed before the update.  The center of the shaft
should be at x=0, z=0.  I would put the bottom of the shaft at y=0, too.

425p01.dat  Baseplate 32 x 32 Road 3 Lane with Road And Crosswalk
           Pattern
- If edge-lines are going to be included around patterned areas, they
  should be drawn first, and *in the complementary color*.

Why do you say this?  I think since they are not really "edge lines", they
should be in one of the colors which touch the border.

70749.dat   Minifig Knife
- Use this number, this part won't be released in non-chrome
- Or use 70749a, since 70749 is probably the number of the
  two-knives-on-sprue part.
- That tip is too flattened.


Terry, why don't you take this one out of the vote 'till I can take a closer
look at fixing this.

71427.dat   Electric 9V Mini-Motor
- Keep this part number.
- Only nit is that axle can be turned.  But that's a minor problem.


I'd be happy to release this as a shortcut with the axle separated.  Someone
doing an animation might want to rotate it.  How are the other motors done?

Here are my comments on the remainder of the parts in the vote. The "I don't have this part" comments are there so y'all'll know I couldn't verify the accuracy of this part, I only looked for obvious problems. I believe all of the patterned parts (...) (26 years ago, 2-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
