Wouldn't you better off using the tools that already exist? Work with
the subparts in whatever ldraw CAD program you prefer, then use one of
the (now many) inliner tools to inline them at the very end when you're
finished with the part.
If you really want to look at some code, you could examine the
Rotate1Part function in the ldglite source code. It's not assembler,
but it's C code, which is the next best thing. :)
