  attention brick bazaar vendors: what are you selling?
 
Hey all, Suz brought this up and since I'm curious as well I’m asking. What will you be selling this year? Specials? Deals? Anything unique? (21 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.events)
 
  Re: Mercedes-Benz Actros 3353 S with Nooteboom ballast trailer, scale 1:13
 
Nice truck! The fact that the doors to the tractor can open is great! (If only your Liebherr LG 1550 had this op). How did you fix the trailer wheels to steer? Also, does this truck use ackerman steering? Thanks. The color scheme looks good for it (...) (21 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.technic, FTX)

  Re: Schpiffkraft Hakenkreuz
 
(...) Wow, has this ever stirred up a hornet's nest. Richie, first about your MOC. You got the basic swastika shape, but little else. If you want to do space Fascists, you have steep competition -- Keith Goldman and Paul Brassington come to mind. (...) (21 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)  
 
  Re: New MLCad Web-Based Forum ...
 
(...) I'm not Michael, but I can guess that just as it is with BlockCAD, MLCad has a large user base not necessarily rooted in the Lego camp, with no great interest in the other benefits/drawbacks of lugnet. Actually, this may give me enough push to (...) (21 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Classic Castle City Flags at BrickFest 2005
 
Hi all, If anyone still has yet to let me know their flag colors, please let me know ASAP, specifically by midnight tonight. Marc Nelson and I are trying to get some kind of name/flag type display thing going. thanks Magnus (21 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: BrickFest -- Bring Your MOC's Bring Your Money!
 
(...) Being that the space assigned for the Brick Bazaar is rather limited and the number of available tables is also limited, I have to agree that the Brick Bazaar is all booked up. The requested table count is already higher than the number of (...) (21 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)
 
  Re: Prospector, an sapce cargo.
 
It,s done, or so I hope. If it's not well done, say it to me, I will try again. Thank you for the tip. And any other help would be lovely (21 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.space)
 
  Re: have a seat
 
(...) Now someone has to follow this up with a technic luxury-car, such as a Lincoln, Bentley, Cadillac, Rolls Royce, Mercedes or Porsche. Great job! It takes a good designer to fit all that in a small area. (21 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: BrickFest -- Bring Your MOC's Bring Your Money!
 
(...) Oh, Yes! (^^) Wheee! (...) Who are they? I'm sorry. I can't find a list. :-\ Also, do you think they would rather not be contacted prior to the event about their stock? I'd love to see some lists of what they'd be bringing, but I can imagine (...) (21 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
 
  Re: Set 10030 ("Imperial Star Destroyer") re-release comments
 
(...) I had mine together for about 4 months, and there was a good amount of deflection in the 1x16 grey technic beams attached to the front support. It's been in the box for a little over 18 months now. When it goes back together, I'll be sure to (...) (21 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Set 10030 ("Imperial Star Destroyer") re-release comments
 
(...) I remember a discussion about the Star Destroyer when it first came out recommending adding an additional support to the front of the ship through the "hatch". I believe someone had pieces of the "A-frame' shatter due to stress. Mine has long (...) (21 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)

  Heads up
 
Me and my lovely bride will be arriving sometime Thursday evening. I wanted to make this post to get the initial shock value over and done with. I have a black eye. Yep, I got me a shiner.

  Re: New MLCad Web-Based Forum ...
 
One thing that is great about these forums is that everything is all in one place. I will check here before I go anywhere else. Splitting up the community with different forums at different sites won't do Lego fans any favors. There are other forums (...) (21 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, FTX)
 
  Re: Schpiffkraft Hakenkreuz
 
(...) Well, not to be blunt about it but yes, that is exactly what they are saying. You ever listen to Robin Williams go on about childbirth? (or anyother topic really) But Childbirth isn't really a funny topic. And most people wouldn't consider it (...) (21 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)
