I did post the file a while back:

I tried it with your Lego model's geometry include file, and it doesn't 
work for some reason. I suspect the mesh isn't completely closed. My 
edge pattern doesn't always work well with meshes anyway. Your best bet, 
I think, is to combine the edge-finding method your are using now with 
the angle of incidence pattern to fill in the remaining edges.
