Multiplying Parts
If you want to show several copies of an element, you can apply a repeat
count. Ever wondered what a dozen transparent neon yellow/green skeletons

- 42 is the LDraw color number for transparent neon yellow/green
- 12 is the repetition count
You write...
<<LDrawPart(6260c01:42:12)>>
