Hey all, Well as most of you already know the Bricklink shop owners hate me at BrickFest. Ok not really, but I usually make deals that confuse them if not dumbfounds them altogether. This year to keep with tradition I will be selling brick again. At (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)

(...) Time to build up! :-) (...) Hmmm. I've probably got at least 30 of them. Maybe it's BL time for me! (...) Wow. Sounds complicated, but not so as the GMLTC modules. They are over the top. I'll let J-1 provide the details. JOHN (21 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

Hey all!, As some of you have noticed in the past 2 years or so, there has been a major advancement in LEGO track geometry created by the community. We have seen the development of the half section of track, crossover the correct radius switch, and (...)

(...) My road trip went VERY well, I got a lot of good pictures and I have a very clear idea of what to use (a few of, 3 to 5 as I said) the bricks for. They *will* be related to the model. Now, the question becomes, can I carve out enough time to (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

(...) Thanks - It has taken me years to get that many of the trans-blue 1x6x9 curved "paradisa" windows. As far as I know, these only came in one set (an airport set from a while back). I don't even have one copy of this set, but I used 32 of these (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) Thanks I agonized for quite a while about the control tower. I was going to use a bunch of 1x6x9 "paradisa" clear-curved panels (actually from Breezeway Cafe) turned on their side, but I just couldn't come up with a design that I was happy (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) Thanks for the feedback - I agree that this building isn't quite as focused as my previous work. In this case I was challenged by the size of the building (and thus the time and effort to build it) as well as the lack of time due to my kids. (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.town)

Awesome! I LOVE this MOC. I love how so many large pieces are used to great effect such as the dark gray exploriens cockpits. One question I have: the large clear smoke tinted dome at the tip of the tower. Is that an actual part, or was a TIE (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.town, FTX)

Hello Brad! I was waiting for your next project. I have always been a huge fan of your works. Bricktopia is a source of inspiration for me when i build. I have to say that I don't think your airport is as good as your previous works. To me, it seems (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.town)
