(...) That's happened since we got our office contract. I'll check into it, thanks. If it's $19 for as much as you can stand to use, that's not so bad. We were paying $10-$20 for a couple of megabytes per month. But the phones are so slow I don't (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics)

So the other day I was playing around with the scoop from the Pneumatic Front End Loader: [LEGOSet 8464] And realised how useless it was, considering I had never used it after I had torn the set down years ago. So (naturally) I thought I'd make a (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jun-05, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.space, lugnet.underground, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX) !!

All I can say is thank goodness for distractions. I'm loving this multiped. Very SorMladen or MladSoren as the case may be. You're details and excellent photography give it just the right touch, Jas. Great job! -Dave (21 years ago, 5-Jun-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Oh, Soren! This is one slick, sleek creation, my man! I love the guns, but prefer the simplicity of the legs. It seems you went to a lot of trouble to utilize parts that have a lot of tile-like coverage to help facilitate a lesser studded effect. (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jun-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Also, the weapons binders are great. :D Thought of making any large support weaponry, though? Jeff BrickFest (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jun-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hello, I have a question about using stickers on LDraw models and rendering these in PovRay (and other renderers). Stickers are 0.25 LDU thick, with the rear (bottom) at y=0 and the front (top) at y=-0.25. When using a sticker it is lined up with (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
