The missing parts are created with Solidworks, exported to STL, then converted with STL2Pov into povray code. After that, I add subfiles and LGEO primitives if needed.
-At first I exported to .dat and got a huge Ldraw folder since my version of STL2Dat was malfunctionning.
Now I just have a large LGEO folder (almost 4 Go including your own library).
Creating parts with Solidworks is quite easy. It take from a few minutes to a couple of hours tops.
I've created almost 200 parts since you shared with me the working STL2pov 2.44.
I guess it is a similar method you are using exept you use CATIA , nothing new.
