Brick 2X2 W. Cup For Ball

A similar part, 62712, exists. Maybe they could be aliased until someone creates it.

The same goes for Jet Engine 98302 (missing) and 3475 (existing), slightly different.

Greetings all,

I m a long-time LDraw consumer, and an even longer-time software developer (currently working in C#.NET), and was wondering about any possible software development tasks I might try to help out with.

i.e. are there any pressing software needs, utilities missing from the LDraw family, tools that users regularly request, etc? Something I might be able to code in my small amounts of free time?

I'm a hard-core C# (and Delphi) object-oriented developer, but also have a great deal of experience in front ends as a UX specialist and graphic designer (so I'm good at UI layouts and creating little icons and that).

So...
- Developers: if you can use me, just let me know.
- Users: if you have a desire for some app, utility, or editor that doesn't yet exist, drop me a suggestion, please.

For instance, my dream LDraw project would be to recreate the MLCAD UI for improved usability, but I gather that's not going to happen... ;-)

An interesting post on Eurobricks by juraj3579, describing a method to render LDraw models with blender.

Hello,

I am looking for the part bb936c01 (Electric Power Functions 4.5V IR Receiver RC Car Base) Is somebody working on this part or has anybody a "draft" version?

Thanks a lot

I'm currently working on an official model which requires part 61254, listed as "TYRE LOW NARROW Ø24x7MM" in LEGO's database. It doesn't appear to be in either the most recent AIOI, complete.zip, or the parts tracker, but the most recent ldraw.xml makes reference to a "Tyre Small New" as 61254.dat. Does this part actually exist? If not, I would like to request it. This part does exist within LDD.

Two physical parts are missing, 10907 Helmet No. 5 and 10908 Visor Nr. 1 (the Iron Man helmet and visor). Both are in LDD as part of the Extended theme. If desired, I can try to get them in a rough DAT format. Note that the visor has a few different color schemes. Eye color and face color both differ from the base color of the piece and are both different from each other. BrickLink separates these into http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=10908pb01, http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=10908pb02 and http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=10908pb03.

There are also some patterns missing. The minifig head has different Tony Stark faces on both sides (http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=3626cpb705), and there is a torso pattern (printed both sides, http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=973pb1106c01) and a legs pattern (http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=970c00pb154). I can attempt to provide scans for these if needed.

Any help is appreciated.

I recently got a Raspberry Pi - a fun and useful little $35 computer. It does not come with a case, so, like many people, I built one out of LEGO. My design is not necessarily the most clever or attractive, but I did create an LDraw model of it, which I've attached. I've also posted an LPub-ified copy and some instructions in this GitHub repository, which I intend to update if I make revisions to the case design. Last but not least, I've posted the instructions and some photos of the actual case in this Flickr gallery.

Hi,
I am new to MLCad but I've managed so far to build a couple of subjects.
However, I am curious on the amount of colours available to use?
I would like to know if there is a method of increasing the amount & if
there is, I would like to know how?
Thanks
Michael
