  instruction approaches
 
An interesting philosophical question about instruction approaches... Does anyone have any thoughts on or examples of instructions that are organized in a hierarchy as opposed to linearly? Where an instruction hierarchy would start with the building (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.inst)

  Re: Seeking input on reused user parts in building instructions
 
I totally agree with all these comments. This especially rears it's head when doing passenger coaches where I've use the same sub model 36 times in s set of 4 coaches!

  Re: Inferior colour rendering in this year's instructions
 
(...) I've had the same problem-I do NOT like the new color-confusion 'art' at all. I was trained in architecture in college & also took many art courses & did art on my own (& still do); A VERY important concept is to make one's ideas easily read, (...)

  Re: Inferior colour rendering in this year's instructions
 
(...) It's not just you it's impacted me, at least. I consider it a retrograde step too, it tripped me up confusing white and grey. Milton Train Works(tm) instructions will not use shading in the foreseeable future, I don't think... (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Inferior colour rendering in this year's instructions
 
(...) I've noticed that it tends to be particularly bad on slopes. If the sloped side is facing the light source (upper right, IIRC) then it is rendered about five shades too light. Rounded pieces tend to look really weird, too. In my opinion they (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

  fast download with Serial-Tower is no faster
 
Just got my second RIS, a 1.5 with Serial-Tower this time. I did not installed any other software than the previous I had (Win98, JDK1.3, Lejos 2.0, USB Drivers for Lego-Tower).

  Re: carpenter needed for the map mosaic
 
Adrian, What you are asking for might be overkill. I would think some EMT conduit, a piece of tarp/canvas, and some rope to stretch the canvas tight should be more than enough. Portable, too. Basically, you would hang the mosaic from rope/cable (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.events.brickswest)

  Re: Now does this qualify as good Lego marketing?
