I've put together a list of possible candidates for the new Round category, and how I think they should sort out. I've included three groups of parts: 'Put in Round', 'Not Sure' and 'Probably Not', to match how I feel about them. I excluded parts I think definitely should not be in Round, but I may have overlooked or missed something. I have not suggested new names for these parts. That's for later. Some categories I excluded from consideration. These include: Antenna, Arm, Bar, Door (think of all those car doors with the round-brick posts), Exhaust, Hose, Plant, Technic (round-end beams, shock absorbers, pins), Turntable, Tyre, and Wheel.

But there's a problem: not all of these parts are actually cylinders. (...) (23 years ago, 2-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
