Some parts end:

.bar
.agl
.cnl
.tube
.sht
.sheet

The .bar threw me because RS100 (building EROS) is a bracket holding the wing spar to fuselage. I thought that would be cut from a sheet, but it's listed as al.bar. I thought bar was solid round stock.

I think agl is angle. Not sure about cnl. I know what tube and sheet are, but what is sht? Oh, and bar?

Thank you!

This is how I understand it.

.bar    = solid stock,  cylindrical / square / rectangular cross section
.agl     = Angle
.cnl     = Channel
.tube   = tube
.sht     = sheet
.sheet  = sheet
