Thanks!
And I wish to note that I've been impressed with your creations. Given my bias,
the Sky Math hovercraft is my favorite (though the Mantis is up there). Any
chance of my getting building instructions for the Sky Math? I think I could
kludge one together, but I'm not sure about how the bottom's put together...
-best,

LOL, wow, the Sky Math, that name still cracks me up. I remember when I came up
with that name, I thought “the Math involved to get that thing to work
(ant-levitation) must be sky high!” Or something to that effect, lol.
That was one of my favorite ships I had as a kid. I swooshed it.

Well, when I built the hover craft, I was very influenced by the Classic Space
ships of yesteryear. Carrying over the black and yellow wing stipes like it was
part of the fleet.
The fun thing about that little ship was it used one of those (H-frame style)
plate car bodies and then the short wings were stacked on top of it.
This was the closest image I could find,
4x10 car body/undercarrige
but the part has the 2x2 depression in the center for the driver and does not
have the brick height at the bottom. (can anyone provide the proper link, I’m
not that good with the parts ref.)
Thanks!

This one maybe?
HTH
I’ve used the above part many times when making my original fire trucks and
other Town vehicles. Now I wish I had gotten into 6 wide instead of being tied
into 4 wide by TLC. Oh well.

Hey, yeah, I have some of those elements. They’re a critical part of 6890
(Cosmic Cruiser). Cool. I may take a stab at the Sky Math this weekend...
Six-wide is fun, but my daughter definitely likes the little 4-wide vehicles,
especially the pizza delivery van from 6350. :o)
-best,
Wolf
