(...) Yes, I must have. I thought the point was that Damien wants a scripting language to do animation. And I keep trying to say POV-Ray is it. Or something comercial. Don't try to reinvent the wheel like I did with Lani. Learn the current (...) (21 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad)

(...) There are 2 ways you can approach this. Animation involves time. The LDraw format does not include anything in it to deal with time. The first approach would be to add something to deal with time to the LDraw format. This is a very bad idea (...) (21 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Hey, sorry I usually don't hang around these here "parts". :-) Well you guys ask (and answered) some really tough questions.... In my (still!) upcoming Lego CD I will be discussing Lego parts mainly from 1949-80, although for some items I go (...) (21 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.parts)

(...) I, for one, did get a chuckle out of this. However, there are other forums where this type of humor would perhaps be more appropriate (and also more enjoyed!) :D However, what I do not like is that fact that this MOC really does not represent (...)

Quoting Dan Novy <dan@flashfilmworks.com>: (...) If you mean the coil, 9V is 180% of 5V rated coil voltage. The issue is the total power dissipated in the coil. If you only pulse the relay at a very low duty cycle at room temp, it won't ever build (...) (21 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I...honestly...don't like it. I just don't like the idea of putting innocent Joe into "adult" situations like this. I prefer G and at the most PG rated humor for vignettes. -- Nathan Wells (21 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.build.vignette, lugnet.town)

(...) Ideally I'd like the package/crate itself to throw the switch, probably via pushing on an axle or liftarm extending from beneath. If friction is too low, I can always use a longer lever arm. Another alternative is to have the crate at the end (...) (21 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics)
