Quote:As those parts are used for connection testing, I would compare the measurements between released parts and those test parts, i.e. stud size the same, bar size etc.?Anyway they will NOT match LDraw parts which are somewhat idealized...
eg. bars are modeled as 3.2mm while their official diameter is 3.18mm. And if we go physical, it's worse: just measured one which is not even cylindrical, I measure between 3.12mm and 3.28mm according to the place where I measure!
Quote:Concerning the parts, I think they can be added, let's hear from the others.I see no problem! BTW, can you share the design numbers you read?
