I just figured out how to do this is Rhino.
Make a new folder.
Save all these files to the folder.
Run the htm file in your browser.
If it does not work let me know what browser you
are using. I intend to do more of this in the future
as it helps to visualize a part.

Neat, Paul!  Worked fine in my browser (Firefox 2...Windows XP)

Made a couple of changes, though, I reduced the size of the individual
images to a width of  750 instead of the 1440 you had,  so I could fit
the entire image on my monitor (17" LCD) without scrolling (Used
IrfanView). Although it will display in much higher resolutions, I
currently have my monitor set at 1024 x 768...others with higher res
setting on their monitors may not need to resize the images.

I also changed the frame rate from the default 75 to a slower 150
(changed the frame rate by opening the html file in a text editor and
then saving it after changing the frame rate), effectively slowing it
down so it's a little easier to view.

More frame images may produce a smoother image, but the real benefit is
the ability to step through the ani so you can take your time and look
over everything in each view.

I like it...will make it much easier to view some of the complex
drawings, like those of the engines and radiators in the mounts,  when
you can "turn the part around in your hand", so-to-speak <G>.

Can it do rotation in three dimensions?

Now go and get creative!<VBG>
