  Re: Why are slope bricks textured?
 
(...) Do you mean part 3939? [LDrawPart 3939:46] Going by the data collected on Peeron, this part first appeared in 1978. For the next ~13 years, the part only appeared in transparent colors. So I'd guess it was intended as a windshield/canopy, (...) (21 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.parts, FTX)
 
  Re: RC racing track width
 
(...) That's a good question. I'm used to races based on time, not laps, but it doesn't mater either way. I would think around 10 would be good. (...)

  Re: What that displayed on my RCX2.0?
 
(...) That sounds like the datalog indicator - while RIS doesn't take advantage of it (to my knowledge), the RCX can function as a datalogger - the quarter of the datalog that is being loaded flashes, while the quarters of the datalog that are (...)

  Re: What is that displayed on my RCX2.0?
 
I am not sure here - but could that mean that the batteries are seriously low? It would seem likely if they have been sat for a while, as even when powered down there is some residual current usage, and leakage in the RCX. Remember that when (...)

  What that displayed on my RCX2.0?
 
G'day, I have been using my RCX 2.0 brick recently after it has been laying idle for a period. I have noticed that there is an extra icon in the display window which is not discussed in the Lego Robotics Invention System 2.0 Constructopedia. I was (...)

  Re: Why are slope bricks textured?
 
(...) What about the 3x6 slopes? Okay, I know they are a little different but they don't have that "texture" you are speaking of. (21 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.parts)

  Re: Why are slope bricks textured?
 
(...) OK, I would love to give some special reason, but I know of none. Ever since the sloped bricks first came out in red (1958) and blue (1960), they have had the textured finish. The simplest explanation I can think of is because most roofs are (...) (21 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.parts)

  Why are slope bricks textured?
 
Its one of the most trivial things, but its always bothered me. Why have that texture on the slope end? What purpose does it serve? From the small selection of un-textured slopes we have, one can only infer that these would be less trouble to (...) (21 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.parts)
