  Re: Plans to include LCAD or TLG part numbers on inventroy entries?

  Re: Question about generating curves
 
Thanks everyone for your helpful information. I believe that I can now properly model curves manually (as opposed to just using cylinder primitives). I'll be trying it out on the "coarse" version of the Duplo bottom stud. As for BFC statements, I (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
