Hey:

I just made some quick and dirty scans of an Alien figure composed of Technic

  hot! Hot! HOT!! this is gorgeous, richard!

  the second pc even looks like an h.r. giger painting! the light catching
on the side of the all-black head reveals the elaborate plate and brick work
quite nicely. it's so great to see a creation using system, technic, and
throbot elements so fluidly!  please give us a "quick and dirty" close-uo of
the head!!  how many bricks long is it?!  the text description begs detail
shots of this beast's neck and torso workings!

  flattered by your mention of my mini-fig alien, i must state for the
record, that i never would have created it in the first place, if you, my
friend, hadn't challenged, inspired, and encouraged me to do it, lo those
many moons ago. i am inspired by other people's creations every day, and it
is very touching when my models and work are a source of inspiration to
others! between you and shiri, right now, i'm downright misty-eyed!

  i'm up to my kneecaps (soon to be elbows) in lego dinosaurs right now, so
who out there is up to the challenge (or suicide mission?) of a... <gulp>
full scale alien model?

Now if you could give some info how to connect them to work

Your assessment is correct - it would take two valves for a
Lego cylinder just as it does for a fischertechnik cylinder.


Btw, the Dacta Advanced Pneumatics Set (#9633) is a good way
to get into
Lego pneumatics. It includes all the parts for an motorised
air
compressor. Also all the parts except for another motor, for
a motorised
pneumatic valve switch. So you can really compare the
mechanical Lego
pneumatic valve with the Fischertechnik electrical solenoid
valve. Do
post your findings.

My next post on this will come after receiving the kit. Its
good to hear that the mechanical valve design is in the set. I was going to
put one together myself. If you have any good ideas on how best to compare
these two systems let me know.

LEGO je detska hracka, ale mal som na mysli nejaku inu hracku. Ale to je • jedno.
Presne toho sa bojim aj ja... ze nebude uz 2x4 kocka. My s bratom zme mali • vzdy
vo zvyku ked sme rozbalili nove LEGO pozret sa kolko 2x4 skladaciek v nom • je.
Volali sme ich "zakladny kamen". Pretoze to je v podstate taky ZAKLADNY • KAMEN
LEGA. A vzdy sme boli radi, ked sme nasli aspon jednu 2x4 kocku. ;) No ale
postupne ich bolo stale menej... Dnes uz je ich dost malo. Naposledy som • nasiel
2x4 zakladny kamen v Star Wars Gungan Sub.

Kocka? :)))))  To me dost rozesmalo.  Cesky kocka znamena po slovensky
macka :)))  Tedy kocka = brick? :)))

No ano, ale macka je koc~ka. S hackem na c. ;)) A brick je kocka. Bez • hacku. ;)
Po cesky je kocka, kostka.

Alespon se ty kocky ;) daji jeste sehnat v tech 1200 piece bucket cislo 3033.
Tenhle bucket tedy uz taky discontinujou ale jeste jsem je videl v obchodech.
Nejakej silenec koupil jeden z tehle na ebay za 50 dolaru.  V obchodech se to
jeste prodava za 20.  Nejaky lidi jsou divny.  Ani se nejdou kouknout do
obchodu jestli tam najdou tu stavebnici kterou chtej ale radsi to koupej na
ebay za 2 a pul krat tolik.  Volove!!!

Ano, ja sa pamatam, ze som tiez chcel kupit raz Star Wars na ebay, ale pozrel
som do obchodu a vyslo ma to o 50% lacnejsie v obchode ako na ebay !
No a k tym 2x4 kockam. Oni su dostat v dost vela bucketoch. Nielen v 3033.
predavaju sa aj v mensom mnozstve ako 1200 kusov. Aspon u nas.

Ja mam ted asi nejradeji model team.  To je protoze vsechny modely jsou tak
dokonaly!  Proste skoro neuveritelny.  Kdyz se tak na ne koukam tak to skoro
nevypada jako lego jak je to detailny.  Nevim zda koupit ty dva ultimate
collection star wars sety.  Asi nejdrive pockam az je nekdo ohodnoti.  Ten x-
wing vypada ze ma vice soucastek nez ten tie fighter.  Jinak, vlastnis nejaky
legovy modely?  tedy podobny tomu drakovi ktery tvuj kamos mel na ebay?

No ani ja uz... Ale BOLO TO TAM ! ;) Neviem... mozno som zle videl teraz, • alebo
co... Nechapem. Ved tam som si to prezeral. Mozno to je tam niekde zasite...
Alebo zeby to bolo inde ? ;)) nie... mne sa zda, ze to bolo na 100% tam.

Taky jsem delal neco v L-draw.  Je to pekny program az na to ze je to v MS-
Dos.  Byl bych radsi kdyby to bylo ve windows.  Nekdo uz udelal windows verzi
akorat na to ze je to DESNE pomaly.  Take co mne na tom stve ze vsechny
soucastky nejsou definovany.  Tedy kdyz jsem neco stavel tak jsem potreboval
soucastku ktera nebyla v L-draw.  Tak dokoncenej model mel v sobe diry :)

Carlo,
visto che sabato non ho preso nota e ho già dimenticato...:-)
Potresti fornirmi marca, magari modello e ogni altra informazione utile per
acquistare cassettiere come le tue?

Ho scritto qui sul ng perché magari interessa anche ad altri. Siamo rimasti
tutti molto colpiti dalla tua meticolosa archiviazione.

Ciao
