Modulex parts

[Magnus Forsberg]

Anyone have any Modulex parts?

I'm working on a set of parts made by Chris Dee and Tore Eriksson. 
The zip-file contained the slopes, but are they correct?

In this image from the marketing documents they seem to be of the same height. Both the front ends and the backsides are all the same height.

But if I look at the parts made for ldraw they are of different height. And there is not enough space inside the 45 deg slope for a stud.

   

The angle of the different slopes seem to be correct; 9, 18, 27 and 45 degrees

I've got some Modulex parts. The height of the 45 degree slope is less than the height of the other slopes. Refer to this picture:

what size are the front lips? looks like only the 45° has a thin one...
how are the back heights compared to the modulex bricks?
can they be stacked/aligned? (like in the LDPE pic)
two identical antiparallel to a block results in what height?

Could you please measure this?

   

Are all 3 red fronts the same height?  How many mm?
Are all 3 yellow backs the same height?  How many mm?

What is the height of the 2 green?

Is there some kind of cutout inside the 45 deg slope, like on the cheese slope 54200?

I don't have a micrometer, so the measurements will be a bit inaccurate. If you would like, I can snail mail you the parts if you can measure them more accurately. You won't have to return the parts to me. PM me if you want to do that. Otherwise I'll provide my less-than-accurate measurements.

I got some good contacts and help from Swebrick. But thanks for the offering.

Part photos with measuring tape (mm) for each of the slopes,

• 1x1 slope
  

• 1 x 3 slope
  

• 1 x 4 slope
  

• 1 x 2 slope (9 degrees)
  

(pictures pending)

• 1 x 2 slope (27 degrees)
