| | | | | | (...) I made one out of "old" LEGO parts that I no longer like and glued up a brick separator for this kind of job. Why cut up and ruin a perfectly good brick separator when you can your recycle old LEGO with tooth marks and scratches :-) Ralph (21 years ago, 10-Sep-03, to lugnet.build)

| | | | | | (...) Ha! I knew that one! It's especially useful when you have a bunch of tiles grouped together and can't bend whatever's underneath them to pop them off. I like to put tiles between train tracks, for instance, when I'm creating road crossings or (...) (21 years ago, 10-Sep-03, to lugnet.build)
