Hi!  I've got a quick question:  what do y'all call this part:
<http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?f=parts/2439.dat>?

In the US, it's a garbage can or trash can.  But I seem to remember that
people who don't speak American have a different name for it.

G'day mate.

That'd be what'cha call a 'Bin'

Or even a rubbish bin. Or garbo. Or circular filing cabinet...... 8?)

(...) "Rubbish bin" would probably work. At least, it would be understandable by us dumb 'muricans. I might add "circular file" in the keywords. :) Steve (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.au)
