I think we might need to set up some rules about how to treat, and talk, about these parts.
Are the two halfes Parts or Subparts?
Could a Part (with its own partnumber) be only placed in the s-folder?
These two coloured parts should not be treated as Shortcuts.
There is a difference between a dual injection and a two step injection.

- Dual injected parts use one mould, but are injected with two, or more, colours at the same time, thus creating a blended, swirly, mixtured coloured part.
- Two step injected parts use two, or more, moulds, and are injected at two separate occations, thus creating a very distint line between the two colours. That line is always at the same exact place in the design.
