See below for download links for the latest version of the LPC [LD Pattern Creator].
This tool was used to create the pattern for the LDraw part 30117p6u.dat
I'm doing some beta testing for Nils and would like LDraw part authors to experiment with the tool and provide feedback

with any bug reports/comments and I will try and co-ordinate with Nils to work on bug fixes and documentation.
