| Firstly, let me say (because I don't think it's said enough) thanks to all the LDraw wizards that keep those new parts coming! Secondly, I must regret that I'm piping up in here at the moment cuz I found something that needs fixin. Let me also say (...) (24 years ago, 10-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

| | Re: The geometry of minifigs

What is of interest is the values that were used to _model_ the minifig. This is because what I want to do is to pose (...) (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
