How to add rubber belt to a model

rubber belts, pneumatic hoses, cables:
indeed, it's lsynth you're looking for.

mlcad supports it natively.

it is very simple to use: you just put "constraints" into your model, ie. placeholders
at certain places where your cable/rubberbelt/hose should "go through".
then you simply hit a button, and the tool will generate the 3d data like a "connect the points"
drawing, using the 3d sweep technique, ie., by repeating a small 3d object along the path given by your constraints.

my setup is that I've put all lsynth parts into a dedicated folder ldraw/lsynth,
and have added this folder to mlcad.ini and to ldview (use the "file" menu).
now both tools can use them, and mlcad can run lsynth from its gui.
