    Re: Making Pikes —Bruce Schlickbernd
   (...) I had a good time tinkering with Lego (okay, okay, playing with Lego, stop twisting my arm) last night. Best visually sans color is the lightsabre with a spear in the other end. No huge out-of-proportion pieces. Is there a black lightsabre (...) (24 years ago, 29-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle)

        Re: Making Pikes —Bruce Schlickbernd
   (...) The technic connector has seen more use of late for this find of stuff (pikes and naginata). Not as heavy looking as the one-by-one round, nor as gaudy as the chrome lightsabre handle. I think the lightsabre blade/peg/spear works better than (...) (22 years ago, 7-Jan-02, to lugnet.castle)
