\"LDraw\"<\/p>\n

For those not familiar with LDraw, it is an open standard for defining parts used by a number of LEGO CAD programs<\/a>.\u00a0 The open nature of the standard allows for numerous parts authors, including those who model 3rd party parts such as Big Ben Bricks<\/a> wheels.\u00a0 Parts are reviewed before release to ensure compatibility with the standard and conformance to the actual part.\u00a0 CAD programs using the LDraw format are used by many modelers to create virtual MOCs and instruction sets.\u00a0 Having been around for over a decade, the LDraw library contains many parts not found other virtual building platforms, including parts that have been long retired, but that may be available to builders via BrickLink<\/a> or other 3rd party sources.<\/p>\n
