Jonathan and all,
I just would like to chime in here and say that I don't think that
"small", "medium", "large", "ex-large", etc. are very good descriptions
for naming parts. I came across my first plastic space wheels in an
Insectoids set several months back, and I had no way to determine which
of those descriptions to apply to them! Well, sure, it LOOKS large to
me, but this is the only one I have, soooo how can I tell which one it
is? I don't think that I should have to open up one of the LCAD
drawing packages to start measuring them against bricks with studs.
Saying that, I understand that naming these things isn't the easiest
thing in the world to do.
my 2 cents.
