Hi,

I do have some questions, and i'm sure someone can answer those.

I made a .DAT model,using the MLCAD program, of a passengercar, and made a
second one from an other passenger car.
I made some Minifigs too (standing and sitting position of a Firemen,Railroad
worker & a woman).
Then i would like to post this on my home page and LUGNET.
Now my remark / question:
I note that the wheelbase,(the buffer,magnet,bogie plate,..) is a
repetitive 'part'. So i gues that i can draw this as a separate .DAT file and
treat this file as a normal piece, o.k .
So i do have to place those files (passengercar.DAT & wheelbase.DAT) on my
home page, isn't it? Or is there an other solution,like 'embed' the
wheelbase.DAT file into the main file 'passengercar.DAT.
Or how does this work?
As you can see,i would like to use 'subfiles' witch can be reused into other
drawings. Only i don't know what the best solution is when i would like to
spread it around.
I'll still have to learn a lot.

Regards, and a lot of drawing fun.
Ludo

(...) Firstly you should have posted this to lugnet.cad or lugnet.cad.dev. lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw is for discussion of the ldraw.org web page only. As for your question, what you want to do with the submodels is fine. For posting to your home (...) (25 years ago, 8-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
