Don't get me wrong. LDraw and LEOCAD and other such tools are great. They let you conceptualize a model and show it off if you are really bad at photography, as well as other uses. But it is a completely different experience and talent to actually (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.space)

(...) True, but you're also limited in real life by the pieces YOU have. There are advantages and disadvantages to both LDraw and real-building.... when it all boils down, it's just a matter of personal preferences. :-) -Shiri XFUT lugnet.cad (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.cad)

I didn't mean to come off as an anti-LDRAW snob or anything like that. I think it's an unbelievably cool tool. I used to make little designs at work until I relaized this was taking up way too much time nad had to delete it for productivity's sake. (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jun-00, to lugnet.space)
