Hi all,

After seeing a building at BF2002 (yes, 2002) that used droid fighter wings for a roof, I thought that was a neat idea. After over ayear, I finally got around to building something. It’s a small freight transfer station, like you might find in a small town’s railway station. Features include an actual sliding door built using some of the 1x4 brick with groove mounted at 90 degrees into a technic beam. You can see it on BrickShelf. Here’s a mini pic:




Cheers!

Roy

I like your pallet mover:

But I think the handlebar would look better if you use the space handlebar for
this: http://img.lugnet.com/ld/30031.gif

To be able to use this part, you can inverse the stud direction by placing a
pair of Technic Pin 1/2's http://img.lugnet.com/ld/4274.gif in the (upside-down)
Brick 2 x 2.

With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen.

snipped..

You are right! I knew there was a part like that, but while I was building the
pallet mover, I had one of those moments where I couldn't envision the part I
needed. I was sitting and thinking "I know there is a good handlebar part...I
know there is a good handlebar part...", but it wouldn't come to me. I wam going
to modify the shape of it a little also...

Thanks!
Roy
