  Re: Reprendre Rebuild
 
(...) Richie, It looks very nice overall. And I like your SNOT bow. How did you transition from SOT to SNOT, which bricks did you use? kurt (21 years ago, 1-Apr-05, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)
 
  RE: caster wheel design
 
On this topic, I know it's been asked before, but... Is there a formula for the optimal offset of the caster wheel's axle from the pivot point? BTW, the relatively new 3u pin without friction ((URL) plus the freestyle wheels ((URL) or model team (...) (21 years ago, 1-Apr-05, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Japanese Restaurant and Home
 
That's wonderful. I loved the typical Japanese items (such as the electricity pylons and vending machine) which are so noticable to the western visitor to Japan. Colour scheme was also spot on. And I'll defintitely be copying how you did the roof (...) (21 years ago, 1-Apr-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)
 
  Re: different types of bricks in different years?
 
(...) As Clark stated, dating Lego can be very tricky. Old molds were often used at the same time as new molds. TLG rarely discarded them if there was still life left in them. Here is a list that shows major brick changes (between Cellulose Acetate (...) (21 years ago, 1-Apr-05, to lugnet.parts)

Mwahahahaha! Tomorrow will be April 1st and last time I checked, there's all these pranksters that will be trying to catch us with a nice announcement about how LEGO is going to reintroduce the monorail sets or the classic grays... However, I'll mis (...) (21 years ago, 1-Apr-05, to lugnet.general)  
 
  Blaster MOC
 
Hi, This is my first Star Wars MOC, and I am quite happy with the results. If the pictures work, you can see that the barrel right behind the flash suppressor cone is made from five tires, three of which are turned inside out, and wrapped around (...)

  Crate Contraption Writeups
 
I didn't want to post a writeup of the recent crate contraptions we've done until I had some video to show. Unfortunately all the video I took at NWBrickCon in October had really messed up audio.

(...) Oh yeah! Nicely disguised 9v technic motor in a 6w package. This is a great all-LEGO solution, Jon. Of course, DCC aux output would eliminate the trackside ramp and allow uncoupling anywhere, but this is an everyman solution for sure. I _have_ (...) (21 years ago, 31-Mar-05, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: different types of bricks in different years?
