  Re: Special tools used to build/design parts?
 
(...) Hey, this could work! I can spit .STLs outta Pro/E no-problemo. I do it all the time at work. For Steve, I believe the "STL" stands for "stereolithography". We generate these files at work and feed them into a stereolithography machine. It (...) (24 years ago, 22-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: help!! what color code is "burgundy"?
 
(...) OK, I've checked these colors using MLCAD and L3Lab, and I believe that color code "261" is the best choice. I'll be sending the revised DAT file in just a second. Thanks, again. :-) Franklin (24 years ago, 21-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
(...) Good point. I've only dealt with one part, so far, that this became an issue with: the (Minifig) Witch's Cauldron. But that one measured at "1/2" (inn between the plates for "1/3" and "2/3"), so I just used decimals (i.e., ".5"). If it had (...) (24 years ago, 21-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

What a flashback! I will never forget those autorickshaw rides I had in India back in '87. They were smaller there but yet... Thank you Fredrik! /Tore (...) -- Tore Eriksson Sweden ICQ: 76066510 LEGO: MOC++++ FS,SP,TO++ TC+ LS YB@m (24 years ago, 21-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: DAT file for 'Adventurer' wheel
 
Hi, Fredrik, Did you ever submit this part to Steve for inclusion into the next parts update? Would you mind registering this part with Tore (so it will be listed in his parts tracker)? Thanks, Franklin (24 years ago, 21-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Special tools used to build/design parts?

  Re: DAT file for 'Adventurer' wheel
 
I've made a simple version of the wheel. It's in a Willys Jeep model posted on lugnet.cad.dat.models, but without the search function, it's pretty hard to find. In the mean time, you can grab it from the DAT file included in this URL: (URL) (24 years ago, 21-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: DAT file for 'Adventurer' wheel
 
(...) Hi Guys! I believe the wheel you are talking about has been done by Fredrik Glöckner. I have it on my system as "spoked.dat" titled "Wheel Spoked Small". We have a few more newer primitives now that might make for a better rendered version. (...) (24 years ago, 21-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Special tools used to build/design parts?
 
(...) The latest version of L3P does support POV commands that can replace the .DAT commands to give nice smooth curved surfaces while ray-tracing. Look here for examples: (URL) (24 years ago, 20-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Special tools used to build/design parts?
 
(...) I'd like to add to Andy's call for info. I have to, he beat me to it :] My uninformed understanding is that parts are currently created by manuipulating text files, much like one could manually make POV-Ray files? But there is no GUI-type (ie, (...) (24 years ago, 20-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Special tools used to build/design parts?
 
Hello everyone, I was wondering if there are any special 3d design tools that people are using to create parts. I checked the LDraw.org pages and mostly saw viewers. Anyone? Any opinions on the best tools for a potential new designer? -Andy Lynch (24 years ago, 20-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: help!! what color code is "burgundy"?
 
(...) Hmmmm... I'll look at those. I've already posted the DAT file, wherein I used 464, but if these two look more like the "real" one, I'll change the DAT file and send the revision to you, OK? Thanks! Franklin (24 years ago, 20-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: help!! what color code is "burgundy"?
 
(...) How about 260 or 261? I don't have an example of the part handy, but I seem to remember it was a kidney-bean purple sort of burgundy. Steve (24 years ago, 20-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I need a dithered color code for "burgundy", the purple-brown color of the vest worn by the "bare chested Pirate". All of the color codes I've tried for this subfile ("(URL) don't look quite right. I've tried the color codes 342, 357, 365, and 470 (...) (24 years ago, 19-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
