Will download it now, as "X does the Gruntwork for you" is a very good feature for me! Yes, downloaded LGEO as I saw the (...) (19 years ago, 11-Jul-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.cad, lugnet.gaming)

(...) Excellent. I use that to present stuff occasionally too. Its not bad at all. Have you considered using LPub, which can do the gruntwork for you? Also, using LGEO which can make things look a bit nicer, and MEGAPov which gives the Lego a more (...) (19 years ago, 10-Jul-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.cad, lugnet.gaming)
