Set: 672-1 Fire Engine and Trailer
OMR Compliant: Yes
Known errors: Missing flexible hose (rope)
Done with: MLCad 3.51
I'll create the missing flexible hose rope...but unfortunately it will be invisible

Set: 344-1 Bungalow
OMR Compliant: Yes
Known errors: Substituted part: Tree 3471 instead of FTPineH(upn0401)
Done with: MLCad 3.51
In real world, removal of old tile 3068a must be some nightmare...

Yes, it has.
I remember having one as a kid and it was a lot of fun shooting stuff in the air with the fork.
And the parts have hooks for a spring.

And advice in 3430 and so called "3429": 0 // Needs work: Spring attachment
I said so called because imho it's actually 3431!

It's definitely not the same spring.
70181 is from 1983 (for the newer, larger 73367 FORK-LIFT TRUCK), while 74603 FORK-LIFT TRUCK (the one being shown here) dates as far back as 1972.
Plus, I did some measurements for Philo at his request.
The older spring is actually of a larger diameter, and is shorter.
In addition to the spring, there are connection points missing from the platform and the standard for the spring to attach to. I gave Philo some reference photos and suggestions (one could "cheat" and just use a cylinder at the top, even though the shape is more like a box with the top two edges rounded off. The peg on the platform is a lot more involved, if one wants to sweat the details.)

Hello Takeshi,
Here is the string I made for this nice 670 set. I think it's not too bad... Hope you'll like it
[attachment=6454]
[attachment=6453]
Made with LDCad the instructions found on JC Tchang's site about how to make a string with the LS60 LSynth part (inlined in the mpd). And quite some time playing with Bezier curves while taking a real-world knot as a reference...
You'll see I fixed three minor glitches, too:
- two 3020's were inverted among building steps
- the crane was vertically overlapping the truck by 8 LDUs
- the red block was lower than (invisible) ground
Finally I couldn't resist but put the stickers... but of course, thanks must go to yourself for having created two of those (BTW I'm impressed by the large numbers of stickers you submitted recently on the PT, great work !)

Great collaborative work on this one

Hi Takeshi,
Nice sets of that era! Will be perfect with your corresponding stickers when they become official parts
I fixed a small glitch in 1589, at the back of the office ground floor (one 3665a and one 3660 were misplaced, and one 3005 had become a 3004; plus corrected the building steps).
Here's the fixed file:
[attachment=6469]
Another point I noticed is the alternation of the transparent 3010's / 3622's on the right part of the bus stop. The instructions scans available on the net are not optimal, but apparently they should be in the 3010/3622 and 3622/3010 order alternately (which seems confirmed by the photo overviews of the set). I didn't change that though, not sure of what you'll decide

Nice model, as always with you Willy
It's only recently, and thanks to LDraw, that I discovered this first version of the Minifigs.
On this one I find it particularly cute the way scarves are represented !

Hello,
Here is sets 648 and 690.
I personnaly had the 690 during my childhood. Ldraw made me discover its ancestor the 648
[attachment=6493]
[attachment=6491]
[attachment=6494]
[attachment=6492]
Thanks to Takeshi for the recently added parts - u454 slanted signpost and 1955 Shell Logo !
For the 690 I had to create the 8x22 baseplate (inlined), which from what I understood only existed for this specific set. I named it u568 (it was previously referenced as x568), is this correct ?
Files are OMR compliant, except for the fact they use the three unofficial parts below, currently in ACCN state on the Part Tracker:

All these sets are really cool, especially when decorated with their dedicated stickers
I noticed a few glitches here and there - nothing very important but I think would be better if they're fixed
I noticed a few glitches here and there - nothing very important but I think would be better if they're fixed
- sets 640-2 and 374-1: the Minifig airtank (3838.dat) should be 2 LDU lower
- set 379-1 : the 3853 (windows frames) and 3855b (windows glasses) aren't correctly snapped together, on all 7 occurences
- set 381-2 : the 3496c01 spout overlaps the 3660 underneath by 8 LDUs
- set 646: according to the instructions, the 3829c01 steering wheel should be yellow
- If I believe rebrickable.com as well as the instructions visuals, many of these sets have 3062a's (with solid stud) rather than 3062b's (with hollow stud); apparently the latter wasn't produced before 1978 anyway. This is particularly noticeable on the main picture of instructions for set 672-1, for example.
- On two sets (372 and 1620), some Minifig are standing in the gap between two pairs of studs (and are overlapping them). Not sure whether this was intended or not (especially for 372 where this permits the Minifig to be in the center of the watchtower) ?
