Hello all,

I'm a bit concerned about several parts submitted to the Parts Tracker that
use the box.dat primitive (the one with all faces and edges present), where
other primitives would have been more appropriate. It seems to me that in
several of these cases box.dat has been attempted to use as a 'no
hassle/quick fix' solution.

With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen.


Forgive me, for I have sinned.

You are absolutely correct. It has been too easy to just use the box.dat
instead of experimenting with the other ones, not knowing if they go from -1
to 1 or just from 0 to 1 and in what axises. And, of course, what faces and
what lines will be omitted...
